[Esopo favole](15x21) pp. 200. Questo libro si compone di ben 430 favole, 354 di Esopo, altre di La Fontaine ed altre ancora dello stesso Pancrazi, ma tutte sembrano scaturite da un'unica mente, impossibile distinguerne i vari autori. Diversamente dalla favole di Esopo, riportate in tante antologie, queste non hanno la morale, tolta volutamente da Pancrazi per renderle di più immediato approccio per il lettore. Anche il titolo per molte è stato cambiato; ridotto ad una o due parole sole parole, esprimenti in sintesi il concetto del racconto. Nelle pagine iniziali "Invito all'Esopo", leggiamo, tra l'altro, la tanto particolare, quanto leggendaria vita di Esopo. L'opera è inoltre impreziosita dalla prefazione della giornalista Marina Corradi e dall'introduzione del filosofo Edoardo Mirri. L'editore in dieci pagine finali ha voluto catalogare queste favole, raggruppandone i titoli sotto gli analoghi concetti che, a suo parere, esprimono, come: adulazione, affetto deleterio, ambiguità, ecc.

Original morocco-backed vellum with strapwork border and title in gilt t.e.g. remaining uncut; number 146 of 160 sets; text in Latin Italian and English. Woodcut illustrations by Anna Bramanti after Liberale da Verona ALL HAND-COLOURED AFTER A COPY OF THE 1479 EDITION IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM BY THE ATELIER DANIEL JACOMET OF PARIS list of woodcuts loosely inserted. <br /> Mardersteig 182. An exquisite and beautifully-executed edition of Aesop's FABLES richly illustrated with newly-cut wood engravings after a copy of the 1479 edition in the collection of the British Museum whose woodcuts are attributed to Liberale da Verona 1441-1526. The illustrations are beautifully carved and hand-colored with a rich scale of colors and shadings that remind us of illuminated miniatures.<br /> <br /> The Latin text comes from the Giovanni Alvise 1479 edition and was translated from the Greek by the Veronese poet Accio Zucco who possibly also used some earlier medieval translations. Each fable is followed by two sonnets by Zucco: the first tells the story Sonetto materiale and the second point the moral of the fable Sonetto morale. For this edition the Latin and Italian texts were revised by the philiologist Giovanni Battista Pighi. <br /> <br /> The second volume contains the William Caxton translation 1484 into English of the first 60 fables. The remaining 6 fables are here translated from Latin by Betty Radice. Prefatory note by Tanya and Hans Schmoller who carried out the revision of the text. <br /> <br /> Vol. 1 frontispiece: "THE FABLES OF AESOP. Printed from the Veronese edition of MCCCCLXXIX in Latin verses and the Italian version by Accio Zucco with the woodcuts newly engraved and coloured after a copy in the British Museum." Vol. 2 frontispiece: "The first three books of CAXTON'S AESOP containing the fables illustrated in the Verona Aesopus of MCCCLXXIX"<br /> <br /> Commenting on the making of this edition Giovanni Madersteig wrote: "At the end of the epilogue I examine the different illustrated editions of the fables printed in Italy during the fifteenth century. This comparison proves that the Verona Aesop was the model for all of them. Even the better-known Aesop from Naples printed by Tuppo contains quite a number of scenes with the same composition but in mirror image. The watermark of the goose which identifies the paper used in the first edition of the Aesop and in other Veronese books as having come from Toscolano was revived for this and other books printed at the Officina Bodoni." Barr John. The Officina Bodoni Montagnola Verona: Books Printed By Giovanni Mardersteig on the Hand Press 1923-1977. London: The British Library 1978. pp. 170-174<br /> <br /> Giovanni Mardersteig Weimar 1892 - Verona 1977 was a printer and typographer who as head of Officina Bodoni created books exemplifying the highest standards in the art of printing. The press began in 1922 in Montagnola Switzerland and moved to Verona in 1927. It printed and published some 200 books and pamphlets including Politian's Favola d'Orfeo; Shelley's Epipsychidion Shakespeare's Tempest and Dante's Vita nuova. There are good collections in many major European and American libraries. The Bodleian Library at Oxford holds a particularly rich collection. Following Mardersteig's death in 1977 his son Martino Mardersteig took over and still occasionally used the Officina Bodoni imprint for works he printed on his father's hand-presses.

One of 130 sets thus total edition 160. Barr 91. Printed on handmade paper watermarked with a goose like that of the original edition this reinterpretation of an early illustrated book printed in Verona in 1479 by Giovanni Alvise was published to mark the 50th anniversary of the Officina Bodoni. A list of the woodcuts with page numbers is loosely inserted in Volume I together with the publisher's prospectus. Volume I contains the Latin text of the 1479 edition with Accio Zucco's Italian translation. Volume II contains the fables in Caxton's translation with the first fable and the final six of the Veronese edition which Caxton did not include translated from the Latin by Betty Radice. The illustrations were coloured by hand at the Atelier Daniel Jacomet Paris. 'The Aesop cuts show a rich spectrum of colours with delicate hues that recall miniatures. Mardersteig maintained that only a great master could have made the preliminary drawings for the fable illustrations and had in mind at the outset the colouring which would give life to the linear woodcuts. This artist he identified on stylistic grounds with the miniaturist Liberale da Verona whose paintings are to be seen in the large choir-books in the Piccolomini Library in Siena Cathedra and elsewhere' Barr page 90.
