References: Adams F-182; Olschki Choix de livres anciens VI 5817 <br /><br />This essay extolling marriage is an early artifact of modern ethnography in that it poses as a survey of marriage customs through history and around the world. In true humanist fashion Fausto mines the ancient historians for most of his material. So we find out that in Lacedaemonia or Atlantis men who refused to marry were forced to run naked through the forum in the dead of winter and that in Assyria husbands were bound by law to obey their wives. The text concludes with a long series of Q&A "quesiti" concerning marriage ceremonies in which we find out why the Boetians crowned brides with asparagus why Persian couples wait until spring to "consummate" any marriage and why it is customary to grease the newlyweds' doorway with pig fat or wolf fat. The book is also notable for its lovely large woodcut initials including a letter T showing a satyr and a man at table together a P with a bare-breasted woman driving a triumphal chariot and an N with a lion-headed man astride a swimming horse.

Nicolao De Barra 1519. 4to 19.7 cm 7.75". 30 pp. final blank lacking. <br><br>Posthumous but still early edition of Andrelini's collection of epigrams addressing a variety of groups and topics including readers sleep and faith; here in => the first edition edited by Jean Vatel and with his commentary. Andrelini ca. 14621518 was an Italian humanist friend of Erasmus until a dramatic break in 1511 and poet royal to both Charles VIII and Queen Anne of Brittany. Vatel was a similarly intriguing Renaissance man the "data" page of the website of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France designates him "Clerc humaniste professeur de grec traducteur et commentateur éditeur dessinateur de caractères typographiques et imprimeur-libraire." Andrew Pettegree and Malcolm Walsby's bibliography of pre-1601 French books shows that Vatel was greatly interested in Andrelini and edited at least a dozen of his works; his commentary for this text was subsequently reprinted numerous times in the 16th and 17th centuries.<br>Â Â Â Â The text is neatly printed in two different sizes of roman font with one decorative and one historiated initial a Virgin and Child; a sizable printer's device appears on the title-page.
