1525réf. L7UBM2B5YKM6Florence 1525. 8vo. heirs of Filippo Giunta the elder Contemporary sheepskin parchment with remains of a gold-tooled spine label dark blue edges. 72 ll. Second Giunta edition of the "Corbaccio" which first appeared in 1487 and was first and similarly anonymously printed by Filippo Giunta in 1516: "una materiale ristampa di questa edizione fatta pagina a pagina e riga a riga" Gamba; "ces deux editions sont assez rares" Brunet. This bawdy satire supposedly based on a Florentine widow who turned down Boccaccio was as popular as it remains controversial for its scurrilous and misogynistic elements. The text is prefixed by a letter from Filippo Giuntas son Bernardo "agli amatori della lingua Toscana"; leaves 57ff. contain Boccaccios letter to Pino di Rossi.With the engraved bookplate of Lord Robert Spencer 1747-1831 British Whig politician on the front paste-down. The youngest son of Charles Spencer 3rd Duke of Marlborough the hero of the Seven Years War Lord Robert was the nephew of the politician John Spencer 5th paternal great grandfather of Diana Princess of Wales and brother of George Spencer the great-great-great grandfather of Sir Winston Churchill. Occasional light brown stains and slight traces of worming to the foot margins of the first two leaves but altogether in very good condition. A charming example of a rare and desirable edition.l Adams B2182; Bandini Juntarum typographiae annales II 199; Brunet I 1016; Edit 16 CNCE 6267; Gamba 203 note; Panzer VII 40f 219; Renouard Supplément p.

1542réf. 835Paris: Jean André bookseller to the University colophon: printed by Denis Janot 1542. French calf ca. 1760 sewn on 5 supports richly gold-tooled spine with a black morocco label in the 2nd of 6 compartments gold double-fillets on board edges blind triple fillets on boards gilt edges green silk ribbon marker curl-marbled endpapers similar to Wolfe 16 but with red blue orange green and white in that order. Folio 31.5 x 21.5 cm. With Jean Andrés woodcut flaming heart and caged bird device on the title page and 15 woodcut illustrations plus 21 repeats in the text mostly 5.5 x 8 cm each in any of several 4-piece decorative borders including 8 foot pieces each with a different coat of arms; one illustration 13.5 x 8.5 cm with an 8-piece decorative border 5 woodcut decorated initials 2 series plus 1 repeat and many spaces with guide-letters for manuscript initials not filled in. Set in a roman type with shoulder notes and some verses in italic and a large roman for headings. Jean André issue of the extremely influential first French-language edition by Adrien Sevin of Boccaccio's first major work Il filocolo ca. 1336 a prose tale detailing the romantic love and adventures of Florio and Biancafiore based on the ca. 1160 French verse romance Floire et Blancheflor written at the request of Boccaccio's muse "Fiammetta". Boccaccio's version served as the model for Chaucer's more than fifty years later but it is a reworking rather than a translation so it was largely through the present printed translation that Il philocope a precursor of the better known Decameron became known north of the Alps. The fine woodcut illustrations first appeared in Janot's 1540 edition of Amadis de Gaula and after the Philocope also for several other romances. The borders used with them in these works are apparently older for two of the head borders are dated 1520. King François I of France who reigned from 1515 to 1547 greatly admired the Italian Renaissance and encouraged Italian influences in many aspects of French culture. The present book reflects that movement both as a model of French Renaissance prose under Italian influence and as an example of book production using new roman and italic types in the new style introduced under Italian influence in the 1530s.With the small letterpress bookplate and the armorial bookplate of Charles Bouchelet de Vendegies Comte d'Hust 1772- 1851 and a later bookplate of the Swiss collector Albert Natural. With a few mostly marginal defects and early repairs but with three repaired tears in the text one also in a woodcut but so skilfully repaired that it is barely visible in the woodcut. One of the repeated woodcuts has a small abrasion. Otherwise in good condition. The binding has restorations to the hinges and corners and the spine shows some superficial cracks and flaking but nearly all of the tooling remains clear. The very influential first French edition of Boccaccio's first major work with excellent woodcut illustrations.l BMC STC French p. 71 Janot issue; Brun Le livre français illustré p. 158; Mortimer French 105 Janot issue; Rawles Denis Janot . 1976 PhD thesis 164; Renouard Imprimeurs Parisiens 155; USTC 37796 & 92444 8 copies; see 37799 65503 & 92444 for the other issues; cf.

Contemporary limp vellum sewn on 3 alum-tawed supports laced through the joints with manuscript title down the spine in rotunda gothic lettering 6 mm x-height with decorated capitals: Filocopo del Boccaccio. Small 8vo 15 x 11 cm. With Giglios woodcut device a bird with a scorpion in its beak above a pot with DG above 2 winged sea-goats with motto non sine quare sic facio and N.S.C.C.F. on the title-page 6 woodcut decorated initials 3 series plus 2 repeats. Set in Aldine-style italic types with upright capitals with incidental roman. Second Sansovino edition of Boccaccio's first important work Il Filocolo here Filocopo a prose romance written ca. 1334-1336 about twenty years before the Decameron. Boccaccio reworked the 12th-century French love story of Floire Florio muslim Prince of Andalusia and Blancheflor Biancifiore the orphaned daughter of his mother's Roman Christian lady-in-waiting. They grow up together in the royal household but when they fall in love his parents try to break up the romance by selling her to merchants who will take her to Alexandria to join a harem. Florio under the pseudonym Filocopo rescues and marries her. He converts to Christianity and they return home where he ascends the throne and his people embrace Christianity. Boccaccio introduced many new elements into the story and told it with his usual flare for often risqué humour. It served as inspiration for writers around the world from Chaucer to Keats and Boccaccio himself further developed several episodes for stories in his Decameron.Francesco Sansovino 1521-1583 had produced the first variorum edition of the Decameron in 1546 and then turned his editorial scholarship to Il Filocolo beginning with Gaetano's text editions in 1527 and 1538. With 2 early owners' inscriptions on the title-page both struck through and part of one abraded. With a small hole in the title-page and the corners of a few leaves dog-eared but otherwise internally in very good condition. The binding is worn but the lovely manuscript title on the spine remains clear. Second edition of the best Renaissance redaction of Boccaccio's important influential and entertaining first major work.l EDIT 16 6334; Gay & Lemonnyer col. 726; USTC 814845; cf.
