rif. 2121709Venice: Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari. 1551. 12mo. Early 19th-century English half calf roll-tooled in blind spine with raised bands tooled in blind and lettered directly in gilt; ff. 43 1; woodcut printer's device to recto of first and final leaf woodcut initials and ornaments; extremities a little worn hinges cracked but hold firm head of spine chipped; a few small stains but otherwise a very good crisp copy; armorial bookplate of Samuel R. Block to front pastedown his ownership signature in ink to title page.First edition the final and definitive ""Ferrara"" version of Ariosto's first comedy in verse and his ""most problematic work for the stage"" Portner.Ludovico Ariosto 1474-1533 best known today for his epic poem Orlando furioso was also the author of five comedies. Following the successful staging of his comedy I Suppositi in the Vatican during the 1519 Carnival he was commissioned by Pope Leo X to write a new play. Il Negromante The Necromancer was sent to Rome on 16 January 1520 however its planned Roman premiere never took place; the pope instead chose to stage Niccolo Machiavelli's La Mandragola. The most likely reason for the play's cancellation was its veiled yet pointed critique of Leo X and the Vatican particularly regarding the sale of indulgences and clerical corruption. While Ariosto's wit was tolerated in other settings a performance of Il Negromante in the heart of the papal court - just three years after Martin Luther's Ninety-five Theses - may have been considered too unsettling.In the play the charlatan Mastro Iachelino the so-called ""Necromancer"" is summoned to cure the supposed impotence of Clintio through his claimed magic arts. Clintio a newlywed is in fact secretly married to another woman Lavinia. Seeking to escape the marriage imposed on him by his foster father Massimo he later turns to Iachelino himself hoping to maintain the illusion of impotence. Meanwhile another young man Camillo also seeks the Necromancer's help hoping to win the favour of Emilia the bride involved in the unconsummated marriage with Clintio.Two versions of the comedy exist: one ""for Rome"" and one ""for Ferrara"". The first sent to the papal court in 1520 was published posthumously in Venice in 1535. The second revised for the Ferrarese court around 1528 was also published posthumously in this edition printed by Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari in 1551 and dedicated by the editor Lodovico Dolce c. 1508-1568 to Giovan Vincenzo Vigliona. Dolce based his edition on the original manuscript which he had acquired from Ariosto's heirs.Adams A-1655; Edit16 CNCE 2665; Agnelli-Ravegnani Annali delle Edizioni Ariostee II p. 123 ""of considerable rarity like all Giolito editions and of undeniable importance regarding the text of Il Negromante inasmuch as it provides us with a version of the comedy not merely corrected but entirely rewritten by the poet"" trans.

F.B.A. debated whether to have these two volumes rebound into four books that said the economy of time suggested these volumes are first offered in their acquired condition. Orlando furioso The Frenzy of Orlando is an Italian epic poem by Ludovico Ariosto which has exerted a wide influence on later culture. The earliest version appeared in 1516 although the poem was not published in its complete form until 1532. Orlando furioso is a continuation of Matteo Maria Boiardo's unfinished romance Orlando innamorato Orlando in Love published posthumously in 1495. In its historical setting and characters it shares some features with the Old French Chanson de Roland of the eleventh century which tells of the death of Roland. The story is also a chivalric romance which stemmed from a tradition beginning in the late Middle Ages and continuing in popularity in the 16th century and well into the 17th. Orlando is the Christian knight known in French and subsequently English as Roland. The story takes place against the background of the war between Charlemagne's Christian paladins and the Saracen army that has invaded Europe and is attempting to overthrow the Christian empire. The poem is about war and love and the romantic ideal of chivalry. It mixes realism and fantasy humor and tragedy.The stage is the entire world plus a trip to the Moon. The large cast of characters features Christians and Saracens soldiers and sorcerers and fantastic creatures including a gigantic sea monster called the Orc and a flying horse called the hippogriff. Many themes are interwoven in its complicated episodic structure but the most important are the paladin Orlando's unrequited love for the pagan princess Angelica which drives him mad; the love between the female Christian warrior Bradamante and the Saracen Ruggiero who are supposed to be the ancestors of Ariosto's patrons the House of Este of Ferrara; and the war between Christian and Infidel. The poem is divided into forty-six cantos each containing a variable number of eight-line stanzas in ottava rima a rhyme scheme of abababcc. Ottava rima had been used in previous Italian romantic epics including Luigi Pulci's Morgante and Boiardo's Orlando Innamorato. Ariosto's work is 38736 lines long in total making it one of the longest poems in European literature. Ludovico Ariosto 8 September 1474 – 6 July 1533 was an Italian poet. He is best known as the author of the romance epic Orlando Furioso 1516. The poem a continuation of Matteo Maria Boiardo's Orlando Innamorato describes the adventures of Charlemagne Orlando and the Franks as they battle against the Saracens with diversions into many side plots. The poem is transformed into a satire of the chivalric tradition. Ariosto composed the poem in the ottava rima rhyme scheme and introduced narrative commentary throughout the work. Ariosto also coined the term "humanism" in Italian umanesimo for choosing to focus upon the strengths and potential of humanity rather than only upon its role as subordinate to God. This led to Renaissance humanism. Gioacchino Avesani. hardcover
