1583 POETRY by LUDOVICO ARIOSTO & others vellum bound 16th CENTURY RARE

Item Details

Description

Sette libri di satire di Ludovico Ariosto, Hercole Bentivogli, Luigi Alemanni, Pietro Nelli, Antonino Vinciguerra, Francesco Sansovino, ed altri scrittori
by Ariosto, Ludovico, & others
Venice :Appresso Fabio, & Agostin Zopini fratelli ; 1583
[8], 206, [1] leaves.
Edited by Francesco Sansovino.
(8vo): 14.5x9.5 cm (5¾x3¾")
Vellum bound, inked spine title.
Sansovino dedicates this collection to the historian Camillo Portio (Porzio, 1526 – ca. 1580), and introduces it with an essay on the material of satire, which he breaks down as "pure simplicity, with severe acerbity, sometimes mixed with a bit of salt, or with some feature [that is] tasty, and acute." Prior to this, Sansovino also worked on the satires of Ariosto (1474–1533), separately published.
The text is divided into sections by author, each of whom the editor introduces with a brief biography.
A short abstract printed in roman precedes each poem, printed in italic. Fine woodcut head- and tailpieces, and a variety of initials in historiated, patterned, and factotum designs, decorate the text; and the title-page features the woodcut printers' device of Truth personified, flanked by an eagle, a lion, a bull, and an angel, representing the Four Evangelists.
Provenance:
Ownership inscription on front fly-leaf of Luigi Pagani Cesa, possibly the Italian jurist born at Belluno in 1855, who served as a member of Parliament for 1904–13; and the words "penso che" ("I think that . . .") written above, in an earlier hand
Some wear to covers; front hinge cracked, very good condition.
