"Paul et Virginie sometimes known in English as Paul and Virginia is a novel by Jacques-Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre first published in 1788. The novel's title characters are friends since birth who fall in love. The story is set on the island of Mauritius under French rule then named Île de France. Written on the eve of the French Revolution the novel is recognized as Bernardin's finest work. It records the fate of a child of nature corrupted by the artificial sentimentality of the French upper classes in the late eighteenth century. Bernardin de Saint-Pierre lived on the island for a time and based part of the novel on a shipwreck he witnessed there." wiki. Éditions Esclapon hardcover

15184543Venice: Georgio de Rusconi 1518. Very good. Small 8vo 145 x 97 mm. 48 ff. Collation: A-F8 COMPLETE some soiling traces of damp in outer margins of D1-F8 for which SEE IMAGES. Old 18th-century vellum. In excellent unsophisticated condition. ITALIAN POST-INCUNABLE EDITION OF THE CARCEL DE AMOR THE MOST IMPORTANT SPANISH NOVEL OF COURTLY LOVE. <br /> <br /> Written in the late 15th century the work is a key example of the "star-crossed lovers" romance tradition. It combines allegory with chivalric narrative while its epistolary form intensifies the themes of miscommunication and emotional crisis. Widely popular it was quickly translated and circulated across Europe as is attested by this Italian translation published in Venice in 1518. The story continues to be celebrated for its emotional intensity and its refined articulation of courtly love.<br /> <br /> The romance was first translated from the Spanish into Italian by Lelio de Manfredi of Ferrara in 1514 and represents a moment when literature language and print culture intersected across political and cultural borders. For years the story was reshaped and redistributed in Renaissance Europe and contributed to a shared literary tradition. On the title-page of our edition we find only Manfredi's name and the dedicatee is Isabella d'Esta his former pupil. The translator has added his own closing epistle to the Carcel de Amor which praises Isabella; the author's name Diego de San Pedro is nowhere to be found.<br /> <br /> The Carcel de amor is told almost entirely through letters speeches and monologues rather than dialogue. It centers on Leriano a young nobleman in love with Laureola daughter of the King of Macedonia. His condition is figured as an allegorical "PRISON OF LOVE" and he communicates with her only through a mediator. A rival Persio sometimes Theseus/Perseus accuses Laureola of having an affair leading to her imprisonment. Leriano rescues her and kills his rival but Laureola ultimately rejects him in a letter. In despair he chooses to starve himself to death but not before delivering a speech in praise of women.<br /> <br /> CATALOGUER'S NOTE: Italian translations of the Carcel de Amor "Carcer Damore" are uncommon.

15374403Venice: Francesco Bindoni & Mapheo Pasini compagni 1537. 8vo 145 x 94 mm. 48 leaves. Italic types. Large title woodcut of the prison of love in flames 19 woodcut text illustrations printed from 13 blocks most showing two scenes; initial spaces with guide letters unrubricated. 19th-century green straight-grained morocco sides with double fillet border enclosing central gold-blocked arms of Gómez de la Cortina his gilt crowned ciphers in the corners gilt edges. Provenance: Joaquin Gómez de La Cortina 1st Marquis de Morante 1808-1868 supralibros & bookplate; with Quaritch their collation note at end; sold in 1996 to Kenneth Rapoport bookplate. <br /> <br /> Lelio Manfredi’s Italian translation of the Carcel de amor 1st ed. 1492 was among the most popular sentimental romances of its time. Many wept over the thwarted love of the noble Leriano and Laureola heir to the throne of Macedonia. Captive in an allegorical tower of love communicating with his beloved only through mediators the hero eventually renounces her in order to preserve her honor threatened by a rival’s false aspersions. There are duels and battles Leriano stops eating and finally dies after shredding and swallowing her letters. The tragedy touched a nerve and dozens of editions appeared in Spain as well as translations into Italian French English Catalan and in the 17th century German. Few remembered the true author whose name is omitted from most of these editions.<br /> <br /> One of several Castilian romances that were widely adapted and translated into other western European languages the Carcel de amor was the only one to appear first in print and to be consistently illustrated. It permeated the European reading public. The tale is told through letters and monologues rather than dialogue and much has been written about its hybrid forms and elaborate rhetoric “a reflection of vernacular humanism and a fictional tour de force of rhetorical precepts†Francomano p. 10 and about its literary sources and later influence or lack of it: While many scholars note its influence on the development of later European Renaissance fiction through its use of epistolary exchanges and of a narrative voice L’autore who acts as intermediary as well as its tragic ending and exploration of class differences between the lovers one commentator has called it “a dead-end in the history of literature†A. West: “In general the Prison of Love is a book of vestiges: of ways of believing that no longer obtain of customs that already were dying out of a manner of writing soon to be eclipsed by the realism of the picaresque novel.â€<br /> <br /> The humanist Lelio Manfredi d. 1528 translated the work into Italian at the request of Isabella d’Este to whom the printed editions are dedicated the first appearing in Venice in 1514. Eight more editions of his translation are recorded by USTC all but one Venetian the last in 1546. This edition is the third of four recorded editions by the partners Fr. Bindoni & Maffeo Pasini who specialized in vernacular literature and devotional works. <br /> <br /> The title woodcut used in the Bindoni and Pasini editions is a close copy of woodcuts from earlier Venetian editions see for example an anonymously published Spanish edition from 1523 Sander 6729 not in USTC whose title is reproduced in the Heredia catalogue vol. 2 no. 2468. Its iconography dates to the earliest Spanish editions as does that of the small primitive text woodcuts which relate to the text and are based on the more elaborate cuts from the Spanish incunable editions cf. Deyermond. Blind copying was the order of the day: note the anachronism of a cheaply printed edition of the 1530s retaining blank initial spaces with guide letters to be filled by nonexistent rubricators or illuminators who by this late date would only have been hired to embellish costly imprints or luxury manuscripts. <br /> <br />  I locate two US holdings of this edition UCLA and Folger and six holdings of other editions of Manfredi’s translation. <br /> <br /> USTC 854438; EDIT-16 CNCE 66994; Sander 6732 note; Palau 293388; Brunet V 112.
