    Abstract:


    Format:
    Codex
    Provenance:

    Faded ownership inscription on the titlepage.

    MS inscription on front pastedown: Walter L. Bullock; from the library of Walter Llewellyn Bullock (1890-1944); accession no. 343973.


    Condition:

    The damaged title-page has been remounted.


    Note(s):

    The preliminary matter includes: the lives of Petrarch and of Laura by Vellutello; the correspondence of Cambi, Ridolfi and Cresci concerning the 'innamoramento' of Petrarch, as given in Roville's edition of 1564; the poet's Testament in Italian.

    The second part is formed by Ridolfi's 'Tauola di tutte le rime de'sonetti, e canzoni del Petrarca, ridotte co i versi interi sotto le lettere vocali.'

    The text is reprinted from the Roville edition of 1558, the Babylonian sonnets (the three sonnets criticizing ecclesiastical corruption in the papal Curia in Avignone) being omitted: pages 207-210 of pt.1 were left blank.

    One portrait (*5r) and six rectangular-box woodcuts. Each triumph is preceded by a rectangular-box woodcut: Amoris (Oo2r), Pudicitie (Qq3v), Mortis (Qq8v), Fame (Rr8r), Temporis (Tt2v), Eternitatis (Tt6r).

    The woodcuts are those of the Angelieri edition of 1585, the portraits are in the vignette used first by Avanzo, 1557.

    Edited by Alfonso Cambi and Luca Antonio Ridolfi, according to Gamba and Graesse. The 'annotationi' are from Bembo.

    Petrarch's poems in italic type and commentary in roman type; printed numbering.

    Printer's device on the titlepage.

    Signatures: *⁸, A-2Y⁸, Z¹² ; ²A-N⁸, ²O¹².
