Tusculani apud Benacum, in aedibus Alexandri Paganini, 1533. In-16 gr. (mm. 199x139), p. pergamena antica con legacci, tit. ms. al dorso, 2 cc.nn. (frontespizio e Indice), CXXXIII cc.num. (ma 137), 1 c.b. Bella edizione dell’epistolario poetico di Ovidio, così illustrata: frontespizio in ricca bordura decorata su fondo nero, 22 vignette nel t. di cui 3 grandi entro cornice, numerosi eleganti capilettera ornati su fondo nero, tutto inc. su legno. Il testo (lettere amorose di eroine antiche) è ampiamente commentato. "Seconda edizione" stampata dal Paganini. Cfr. Brunet,IV,278 per l’ediz. Tridino, 1516: “Cette édition, imprimée en caractères fort menus, contient un copieux commentaire qui environne le texte à chaque page.. C’est d’après cette edition qu’a été faite celles de Tusculanum, 1525 et 1533, qui forme le 5e vol. de l’Ovide imprimé in aedibus Alex. Paganini” - The British Library, p. 480 - Sander,5289 (in Nota) e Essling,1156 citano un’ediz. di Paganini del 1538. Cfr. anche Brunet/Deschamps, p. 1274: “Un célèbre et nouvel imprimeur de Venise, Alessandro Paganini, qui s’était établi à Salo en 1517, choisit le village de Toscolano pour y fonder un établissement durable (1521-1533); ce fut là qu’il fit usage de ces caractères gothiques bizarres, qui n’appartiennent qu’à lui..” Antiche scritte a pnna al risg.; fori di tarlo margin. su ca 30 cc.; margine super. rifilato (talvolta intacca la parola di tit.); con lievi aloni e tracce d’uso interc. nel t., ma complessivam. un buon esemplare.

Description:
Contemporary parchment binding. Title shield on spine is partly missing. 115 x 65 mm, 12º: A-X#8, 335 [1] pp.; 2A-2S#8, 286 [2] pp.; 2A-2F#8, 2P#8 (-2P1,2,3) 2Q#8, pp. 1-96 and 231-256. Three title pages with printer’s mark of Plantijn. In the third part, the pages 97 to 230 are missing. Collected works of Publius Ovidius Naso (43 BC – 17 AC), one of the best Latin poets from the Golden Age of August. The binder has left out the quires 2G to 2O from the third part – no doubt on instructions of the owner of the book – and thus has left out all erotic poetry that Ovid wrote: 'Amores,’ Ars amatoria’ and ‘Remedia amoris.’ This last poem has maintained its last page in this edition, because on the reverse side of this poem begins the poem ‘Medicamina faciei femineae.’ However, the text of ‘Remedia amores’ that has been printed, is carefully made unreadable with pen.
