The Hague: Henri van Bulderen 1694-1698. Second Enlarged Edition of the description of a voyage to Italy made by the author in 1687-88 which served for fifty years as an essential European guide book to the Grand Tour. This copy was handsomely bound for a Sicilian noble. Volume III is not called for in the 1694-98 publication; it has been taken from the third edition and uniformly bound with our set. François-Maximilien Misson ca. 1650-1722 a Protestant from Lyon was forced to seek refuge with his family in England upon the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. His father became a minister within the Huguenot community of London and Misson found employment as tutor to Charles Butler later Earl of Arran. It was with his pupil that Misson undertook the Grand Tour of which he gave an account in this book. The two traveled to Italy via Rotterdam Cologne Munich and Innsbruck crossing the Brenner Pass then to Verona and Venice visiting points of interest in and near Naples making a long visit to Rome and returning via Bologna Milan Genoa Turin Geneva Strasbourg and Brussels. His work in the form of a series of letters describes every locale visited and is "resoundingly modern" in tone containing an orderly account of "first-hand factual observations augmented by the critical perspective of a protestant travelling through a Catholic country" Oxford DNB. First published in 1691 translated into English in 1695 the work was hugely popular and was frequently reprinted with additions and enlargements. The fine engraved plates show detailed and accurate views of the principal sites from the major Italian and other European cities monuments objects animals and plants of local interest and regional costumes.

197116792Roma: Partito Comunista Italiano / Editoriali Fratelli Spada 1971. First Edition. Lithographed poster offset in three colors; 100cm x 70cm ca 40" x 28"; on heavy paper. Minor toning; light creases at margins; Near Fine - Grade A/A-. A bit of a puzzle: the poster appears to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the formation of the Associazione Bandiera Rossa an Italian Trotskyist group; but the poster bears the imprint of the PCI the main-line Marxist-Leninist party in Italy -- an ideological implausibility even within the chaotic confines of Italian Marxism. Adding further to the confusion is a quotation from Antonio Gramsci founder of the PCI in upper right. In any case a terrific graphic attributed here to Luciano Prati whose name we encounter on a few late-70s Italian film posters but nowhere else. Duke University appears to be the only North American institution to hold a catalogued copy of this work. Partito Comunista Italiano / Editoriali Fratelli Spada unknown books
