About This Item
Ulyssipponae: apud Haered. Antonii Pedrozo Galram. M. DCC. LIII. 1753. 4to, 195 x 138 mms., pp. [iv], 155 [156 blank], printed throughout with music, three pages of ms. notes before title-page and 4 pages at end of book, contemporary sheepskin, spine faintly gilt in compartments; top of spine chipped, base of spine slightly defective, corners worn, front cover scratched, front paste-down end-paper lifting, but with a clear text, and a contemporary inscriptiong "A. Neavey" on top margin of the title-page, and an inscription in pencil on the verso of the leaf facing the title-page, "W. J. A. Flynn/ Oxford/ Septr 1975." The Portuguese priest Francisco Alvares Vitorio is said to have been born in 1702, but his death date is not known. The Lisbon office of the Portuguese printer Antonio Pedroso Galrão (Latinized as Galram) was "founded c. 1695", according to The Oxford Companion to the Book (2010), which also says he died "c 1742", but the imprint of the item on offer shows the man, or his firm, still flourishing in 1753.� This quarto with ecclesiastical music from 1753 is so rare that COPAC finds only a single copy: the one in the Special Collections Library at the University of Aberdeen. OCLC WorldCat has an entry on the book (OCLC Number 1113386154), and locates the aforementioned Aberdonian exemplar, but finds no others. As the title-page asserts, this is the second edition, but I have not found an earlier first edition�.
