155475<p>4to 214x152 mm. 8 135 1 leaves. Collation: 4 †4 a-z4 A-L4. With the large woodcut portrait of the author on the title page and the printer's device on last leaf verso. Contemporary limp vellum inked title on the spine and lower edge remnants of ties new endpapers small stains. On title page manuscript ownership's inscription Ballybay Library. Inner margin of the title page reinforced small holes to the gutter of the first two leaves with no loss of text small ink stain on the upper blank margin at the end of the volume otherwise a very good genuine copy.</p><p>FIRST COMPLETE EDITION. First published in Bologna in 1546 containing only seventy-two chapters the <em>Ricordi</em> appeared in an enlarged edition in 1549 124 chapters also in Bologna. The present definitive edition containing 133 'ricordi' was edited by Zaccaria Bellenghi Fra Sabba's chaplain in Faenza shortly after the latter's death. The work became very popular and between 1546 and 1613 twenty-five editions were published.</p><p>In the present edition is also found for the first time the title woodcut showing Fra Sabba in his study. Ugo Rozzo <em>Lo studiolo nella silografia italiana 1479-1558</em> Udine 1998 pp. 90 114 deems this frontispiece to be remarkable for the mid-sixteenth century both for its Hospitaller imagery and its display of books within the study. The woodcut is emblematic of Sabba's monastic life conducted within the Order's parameters of social utility. He presents an iconographic image of the devout humanist knight who prefers the tranquility of his Commenda to the bustle of the city see also D. Thornton <em>The Scholar in his Study: Ownership and Experience in Renaissance Italy</em> New Haven CT 1997 pp. 106-114.</p><p>The work consists of two series of "avvertimenti" advices each closely related to Castiglione's initial idea of providing to his grandnephew Bartolomeo Righi useful hints on how to become a perfect knight Hospitaller but its numerous printings in the sixteenth century and its breadth of scope suggest a wider target audience. The other 'ricordi' were developed into true small treatises or essays that Castiglione expanded and augmented in every new edition. Despite not having a wide-ranging extent nevertheless they present a considerable interest especially when compared to the works of contemporaries on the same topics i.e. the life of a courtier the government of a city the prince and the tyrant men of arms and religion marriage how to decorate a house clothes food and drink physical exercise travel etc. But included were also his life in Faenza his political aspirations linguistic experiments ideas on religious reform. Geopolitical issues of the day are vigorously engaged and farcical passages replete with colloquial phrasing appear alongside passionate theological discourse expressing a strident anti-Lutheran viewpoint cf. C. Scarpati <em>Per il testo dei 'Ricordi'</em> in: "Studi sul Cinquecento italiano" Milano 1982 pp. 68-82; see also D.F. Allen <em>The Hospitaller Castiglione's Catholic Synthesis of Warfare Learning and Lay Piety on the Eve of the Council of Trent</em> in: "The Hospitallers the Mediterranean and Europe: Festschrift for Anthony Luttrell" K. Borchardt & al. eds. London 2016 pp. 286-298.</p><p>The <em>Ricordi</em> is also very interesting from the point of view of art history and criticism showing Fra Sabba's antiquarian efforts for Isabella d'Este his admiration for Dürer's prints and the artists he had known at Rome e.g. Gian Cristoforo Romano Bramante Raphael Cristoforo Foppa 'Il Caradosso' the San Gallo family just to mention a few cf. M. Collareta <em>Il mondi dell'arte dei 'Ricordi' di Fra Sabba</em> in: "Sabba da Castiglione 1480-1554. Dalle corti rinascimentali alls Commenda di Faenza. Atti del Covegno Faenza 19-20 maggio 2000" A.R. Gentilini ed. Florence 2004 pp. 297-312.</p><p>At the end of the volume is reprinted another work by Fra Sabba the <em>Consolatoria</em> written during his stay at Rhodes November 25 1517. This consolatory epistle addressed to the Milanese poet Camilla Scarampi for the death of her husband Ambrogio Guidoboni. This letter was published at Bologna in 1529. From the dedication dated March 15 1527 to Giacomo Guicciardini vice-president of Romagna we learn that Fra Sabba had submitted the work in the last ten years to Niccolò Machiavelli and Panfilo Sassi asking them if they considered it worthy of being published M.C. Tarsi <em>Una poetessa nella Milano di primo Cinquecento Samilla Scarampi</em> in: "Giornale storico della letteratura italiana" 192/639 2015 pp. 414-451.</p><p>Sabba da Castiglione was an instance of the self-fashioned courtier-knight of the later Renaissance who combines an unusual set of roles: Hospitaller commander canon regular art collector courtier poet and preceptor of knightly rules. He was born in Milan around 1480 where he also became his first. education. He pursued post-secondary studies at the University of Padua studying jurisprudence from about 1500 to late spring 1505 but did not finish his legal education. After a brief stay in Mantua in 1505 at the age of 25 he decided to join the Order of the Knights of Jerusalem later called Knights of Malta of which he soon became Deputy Attorney General. He lived in Rhodes until 1508 then moved to Rome where he sojourned seven years as legal aide-de-camp to the admiral of the Order of the Knights Hospitaller and later Grand Master Fabrizio del Carretto cultivating his interest in the arts and literature. In Rome he also met his cousin Baldassare Castiglione author of Il <em>Cortegiano</em>. Fra Sabba was a passionate forerunner of archaeology and during his stay on the Aegean Sea he was able to procure several ancient marble pieces to Isabella d'Este in Mantua. In 1515 at the age of thirty-five Fra Sabba became a Hospitaller commander accepting a post previously held by his friend Giulio de' Medici the future Pope Clement VII. He took up residence at the Order's Commenda or commandery a district headquarters similar to a feudal estate in Faenza Romagna part of the Papal States. He accepted this post to better dedicate himself to the studies he loved so much away from mundane affairs the intrigues of courts and military life. His residence in Faenza was the Church of Commenda Saint Mary Magdalene also called 'Magione' dating back to the XII century. It was not in good conditions when Fra Sabba came. This was due to the fact that previous commanders had not chosen the complex of the Commenda as their own living place employing their revenues for other purposes. In 1533 Fra Sabba entrusted Girolamo da Treviso with the task to embellish the church with a fresco portraying the 'Enthroned Madonna between Saint Mary Magdalene and Saint Catherine of Alexandria'. Another work of art of great importance accomplished in the year of his death is the one painted by Francesco Menzocchi from Forlì: a monochrome fresco depicting him as an old man presented by Saint Joseph to the Virgin. Underneath this image lies Fra Sabba's sepulchre with a Latin epigraph composed by himself. His interests as a man of study and collector gave birth to a library unfortunately lost and to a collection of pieces of art whose surviving items are to be seen in the Pinacoteca Comunale of Faenza F.
