Very faint faded dampstain to the outer margins of a few pages. This is one of the rare Giolito editions of Boccaccio's "L'Elegia di Madonna Fiammetta" in which the important italian publisher Gabriel Giolito added a two-page-dedication to the women of Citta di Casale. His dedication reads: to the Gentili et Valorose donne della Città di Casale di Monferrato Gentle and Valorous women of the city of Casale Monferrato. This early dedication to women conveyed what later became the normative terms of Giolitos advertising techniques. According to Giolito Lamorosa Fiammetta was ideal feminine reading since it narrated a womans amorous experiences" Source: Androniki Dialeti - "The Publisher Gabriel Giolito de Ferrari Female Readers and the Debate about Women in Sixteenth-Century Italy" Elegia di Madonna Fiammetta or The Elegy of Lady Fiammetta in English is a novel by the Italian writer Giovanni Boccaccio probably written between 1343 and 1344. Written in the form of a first-person confessional monologue it describes the protagonist Fiammetta's passion for Panfilo a Florentine merchant and takes place in Naples. It has been characterised as the first psychological novel in Western literature. It consists of a prologue and nine chapters. Wikipedia Giovanni Boccaccio 16 June 1313 21 December 1375 was an Italian writer poet correspondent of Petrarch and an important Renaissance humanist. Boccaccio wrote a number of notable works including The Decameron and On Famous Women. He wrote his imaginative literature mostly in the Italian vernacular as well as other works in Latin and is particularly noted for his realistic dialogue which differed from that of his contemporaries medieval writers who usually followed formulaic models for character and plot. Boccaccio grew up in Florence. His father worked for the Compagnia dei Bardi and in the 1320s married Margherita dei Mardoli who was of a well-to-do family. Boccaccio may have been tutored by Giovanni Mazzuoli and received from him an early introduction to the works of Dante. In 1326 his father was appointed head of a bank and moved with his family to Naples. Boccaccio was an apprentice at the bank but disliked the banking profession. He persuaded his father to let him study law at the Studium the present-day University of Naples where he studied canon law for the next six years. He also pursued his interest in scientific and literary studies. His father introduced him to the Neapolitan nobility and the French-influenced court of Robert the Wise the king of Naples in the 1330s. At this time he fell in love with a married daughter of the king who is portrayed as "Fiammetta" in many of Boccaccio's prose romances including Il Filocolo 1338. Boccaccio became a friend of fellow Florentine Niccolò Acciaioli and benefited from his influence as the administrator and perhaps the lover of Catherine of Valois-Courtenay widow of Philip I of Taranto. Acciaioli later became counselor to Queen Joanna I of Naples and eventually her Grand Seneschal. It seems that Boccaccio enjoyed law no more than banking but his studies allowed him the opportunity to study widely and make good contacts with fellow scholars. His early influences included Paolo da Perugia a curator and author of a collection of myths called the Collectiones humanists Barbato da Sulmona and Giovanni Barrili and theologian Dionigi di Borgo San Sepolcro.

The whimsical added title complements this monumental Italian humanist work; a defense of poetry and a synthesis of ancient mythological sources which justified the study of pagan literature within a Christian context. <br/><br/>Betussis Italian translation of Boccaccios medieval work on progeny in classical times a veritable mythological encyclopedia that aimed to solve questions about lines of succession. Boccaccios Genealogia sought to preserve the past from oblivion by creating an almanac of inter-related families including the competing noble houses in order to organize lines of descent. With the Genealogia Boccaccio aimed to solve contradictory accounts of hereditary matters by assuming the existence of pagan gods and organizing their progeny - Jupiter I and Jupiter II for instance. Perhaps most contentious was Boccaccios identification of Demogorgon as the ultimate progenitor of all pagan divinities description starting on page 5 who was also associated with Satans netherworld conspirators. The Genealogia reputedly had been copied and transmitted before its completion apparently without the consent of Boccaccio. The earliest Latin editions all follow the first of 1472. This is a later edition of Giuseppe Betussis Italian translation of the Genealogia; Betussis first was printed in Venice by Comino da Trino di Monferrato in 1547. Nearly a dozen subsequent editions follow this date well into the seventeenth century. Betussi was a prominent man of letters in Paduas Accademia and was at the avant-garde of those promoting the substitution of Italian for Latin as the language of scholarly literature. To his edition Betussi added a ten-page biography of Boccaccio and alphabetical indices corresponding to page numbers not book or chapter. The Genealogia became a standard reference works for readers who wished to disentangle the complexities of Greco-Roman mythology. The work was enormous in scope covering approximately 950 individuals groups and beasts both named and unnamed in fifteen books and 723 chapters with over a thousand citations from Greek Roman medieval and Trecento authors. Near the end of the sixteenth century the Genealogia while mostly out of the public eye still provided source material for numerous authors including Edmund Spenser and his work on Christianized paganism.
