Este gran poeta Napolitano del siglo XVII fue fundador del estilo llamado Marinismo después secentismo. Su obra se caracterizaba por un uso extravagante y excesivo de conceptos llegó a imponerse en la poesía italiana del siglo XVII. Su estilo de poesía basada en la exageración del artificio manierista está colmada de antítesis y de un sin fin de matices de palabras pródiga en descripciones y de una sensual musicalidad. Gozó de muchísimo éxito en su época pudiéndose comparar al que tuvo Petrarca antes que él.

1850AQ23584Naples: s.n. 1850. vi 2pp 72ff. The main body of the text with printed music to versos and libretti to rectos. Contemporary perhaps original purple cloth gilt titled to spine and upper board. Marbled endpapers. Marked with some remains of what is presumably candle wax to lower board slightly faded and rubbed small wormhole at the head of spine bumping to corners. A rare survival of a Neapolitan-printed psalmody/hymnal produced for the use of the English Protestant congregation at Naples 'revised by Daniel Holmes organist to the chapel'. Traditionally a room in the house of the Consul-General was provided for the English of Naples to worship but with the reduction in stature of the Consul during the early nineteenth-century pressure mounted for the construction of a permanent - and separate - home. Despite strong ties between the Bourbon monarchy and the English establishment disputes between the congregation and the government of Naples ensued. Newly built premises were vetoed and so instead the first separate and permanent Chapel which opened in 1841 consisted of a part of the Palazzo Calabritti paid for after successful appeal to Lord Palmerston by Her Majesty's foreign office.
