About This Item
Milano: Società tipografica de' classici Italiani, 1828. Very Good. 23 cm; xxiii, [3], 548, [4] pages. Frontispiece mezzotint portrait of Bartolommeo Lorenzi. Bound in contemporary mottled sheep over marbled boards. Joints beginning to split at crown and heel. Occasional light stains.
Not only do anthologies like this one provide a broad cross-section of a literary moment by including the work of many contemporary poets, but they also preserve the best work of minor poets that would otherwise be lost. This 19th-century tribute to the Age of Enlightenment immediately past includes works of Roberti, Lorenzi, Rezzonico, Mascheroni, Bettinelli, Frugoni, Bondi, Mazza, and Paradisi. It focuses on didactic poetry, a form in which the Enlightenment excelled, and epistolary poetry, which lends itself to the discursive tone so favored by the Illuministi.

About Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio
Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio owes its name and its inspiration to the traditional Italian studio bibliografico. These small antiquarian bookshops, typically run by individuals who combine deep scholarship with a love of the printed object, remind us that underlying the words "study" and "studio" is the Latin term for zeal and devotion, studium. Since 1993, my goal has been to match discerning collectors with extraordinary books and manuscripts.
