16585692Venice: Niccolo Pezzana 1658. Very Good/First Pezzana edition of the popular 16th-century "forest of many stories" by Spain's Pedro Mexia. Nicolò Pezzana purchased the famous Giunti press in 1657 making this one of the first titles issued under his name. The book is a Spanish Renaissance entry into the genre named "Silvae" by Statius but this text falls more into the tradition of Xenophon's Symposium Athenaeus Macrobius and Aulus Gellius that is expansive shapeless episodic with masses of detail and a stupefying variety of topics and narratives. It was incredibly popular in the 16th and 17th centuries reprinted in something like 106 editions in every European language. It was a rich treasure chest for later Renaissance authors such as Miguel Cervantes whose Quixote is also a forest of many tales several of them lifted from Mexia and Christopher Marlowe who pulled his Tamburlaine from its pages. It is now thoroughly obscure. . Quarto 23 cm; 50 of 52 788 8 152 pages. Lacks half-title. Four title pages each with Pezzana's woodcut device showing Jove Juno Vulcan and Neptune. Occasional woodcut initials and ornaments. Shoulder notes. Bound in marbled paper with leather backstrip; backstrip decorated and titled in gilt. Binding quite worn with joints tender and boards scuffed edges exposed. Text generally quite good with occasional worm trails the most severe of them in the margins. Pages evenly toned.

Buon esemplare completo e complessivamente ben conservato entro graziosa ed onesta legatura dell'epoca; lievi segni d'uso sulle legature piccoli difetti sulle sguardie qualche segno a lapis sugli indici. Bella edizione ottocentesca del Don Quixote di Cervantes nella celebrata traduzione di Bartolommeo Gamba e con ricco apparato iconografico ripreso dall'edizione parigina di Dubochet del 1836. Bartolommeo Gamba noto come bibliofilo e bibliografo per l'importante e tuttora valida Serie dei testi di lingua fu a lungo attivo nell'editoria dapprima con i Remondini per i quali curava tra l'altro la corrispondenza con la Spagna affinando la conoscenza dell'idioma iberico e poi come editore-tipografo dirigendo la Tipografia di Alvisopoli. Fu per l'impresa veneziana che il letterato diede alle stampe per la prima volta la sua traduzione del Don Quixote 1818-1819 con illustrazioni di Francesco Novelli; la versione venne condotta sull'edizione della Reale Accademia di Madrid del 1780 e fu molto apprezzata conoscendo numerosissime ristampe. «El traductor que lo fué B. Gamba adoptò una manera de traducir que sin ser literal reproduce con bastante fidelidad salvo alvunas exceptiones el sentido del original. El estilo es bastante elegante y las poesias estan traducidas con gusto» Rius. L'edizione qui proposta riprende la revisione del testo curata da Francesco Ambrosoli nel 1840 per Andrea Ubicini ma include anziché la prefazione di Louis Viardot tolta dall'edizione parigina presa a modello una breve introduzione di Antonio Balbiani. I due volumi sono illustrati da circa 800 vignette xilografiche disegnate da Tony Johannot con l'ausilio di Andrew Best Leloir Brevière Porret e molti altri. Rius I 795; Ashbee 186 per la serie iconografica e 410; Palau II p. 172. Cat. 26 n. 9. Presso la Libreria Dante Alighieri di Erico Politti. [Tip. Lombardi, 1870] unknown

Bizio relies on the writings of Aristotle and Pliny and provides a detailed description of the variety of mollusks described by the ancients and the methods used to render the liquor from the shellfish. He follows this with details describing the difficult process required to produce the color purple for use by painters and cloth makers in the ancient world. Called Royal Purple this pigment was a rare and valuable color thus making it both rare and expensive.</p> <br /> Carlo Piersanti and Ugo Enrico Paoli "Porpora". Enciclopedia Italiani 1935.
