About This Item

In Venetia Appresso li Guerigli, 1646. 12mo, 103 x 53, pp. [6] 7 - 264; [2] 3 - 95 [96 "Registro"], including engraved and printed title-page and separate title-page following page 264 for "Rime di Missier Giacomo Sannazaro Nuouamente ristampatem & ripurgate di molti errori: E aggiuntoni di vuouo in questa vitima Impressione, la Terza Parte," with the same imprint and date and continuous collalation (the first leaf is signed [M]), but new pagaination, nicely bound in contemporary vellum; covers a bit soiled but a very good copy. The Arcadia was one of the most popular books that Jacopo Sannazaro (1457 - 1530) published in 1504. Usually called a prosometer, a mixture of prose and poetry, with the author appearing as the shepherd Sincero. Perhaps the most interesting feature of this edition is the publisher's rather lavish dedication to the famous opera singer Anna Renzi (c. 1620 - c. 1665), probably opera's first diva. Uncommon. OCLC locates copies in Southern Illinois University; Catholic Institute of Paris, National Library of Spain, and the Danish National Libary
