X 264; 259 pp. A magnificent copy which has belonged to the famous English architect and planner James Pennethorne famous for his parks and buildings in central London."For a period of thirty years in the mid-nineteenth century James Pennethorne was more intimately involved with the planning and building of London than any other major architect. A pupil of John Nash he took over his teacher's practice and became government architect for the first half of Victoria's reign. He was responsible for the planning of new streets the laying out of parks and the design of important public buildings such as the Public Record Office the west wing of Somerset House and the Duchy of Cornwall office. It is therefore almost impossible for Londoners to avoid coming into contact with some aspect of his work." Cambridge Studies in the History of Architecture. hardcover

First edition extremely rare of this lively programme in Romanesco or Roman dialect issued for the 3 February 1838 Carnival performance of La Didona an adaptation in Romanesco of Metastasio's 1724 Didone abbandonata. The opera is thought to have been translated into Romanesco by the poet and abbot Alessandro Barbosi. This anonymously authored programme advertising the opera as being in the 'Roman language of Trastevere' trans. was to be distributed at the box office 'dar buteghino de la cummedia' at Rome's Teatro della Pallacorda on the night of the opera staged back-to-back with a prequel by Luigi Randanini Un teatro drento na casa ciove er provemio de la commedia also in Romanesco. Our programme which encourages viewers to attend both showings if they can provides an engaging and colloquial summary of the context of the play glowing reviews of the set design and a blow-by-blow account of the plot. 'So you want me to give you the long and short of it without going on and on He the man who wrote Didone abbandonata did everything to inspire anyone who goes to see it. Sound good The clothes are just like the ones they wore a thousand years ago. The scenery is all made of medium-thick Frabbiano i.e. Fabbriano paper made of white rags all painted on the spot . by a painter so gifted that even the sun appears as it would in real life' p. 8 trans. and the prop weapons gleam like silver. The summary is deliberately kept light in tone and brief so that it can be 'better understood by those who - poor things! - are not especially literate and cannot read a story as old as this one detail by detail' p. 9 trans. The Avviso is not only a significant resource with regard to nineteenth-century Roman dialect but also provides insights into the use of plays and operas in Romanesco as a means of 'making the classical repertoire known to a wider audience. The Avviso is a true translation. It is neither a pure intellectual exercise in and of itself nor an adaptation a parody or worse an irreverent remake. With the exception of a few adjustments designed to justify space-time collocations inevitably connoted by the dialect the fidelity to the original text is absolute and the care is such that the work's dramatic impact is in no way taken away altered or diminished' Barboni p. 118.The Teatro Pallacorda famous for staging plays and operas in Romaneseco was renamed Teatro Metastasio in 1841 closed during the First World War and was demolished in 1936; it was formerly a tennis court thought to be the site at which Caravaggio murdered Ranuccio Tomassoni in 1606 prompting his flight from Rome. The libretto of Barbosi's Didona would not be published until 1851 without the author's name and with commentary by Filippo Tacconi. No copies traced in the US or the UK; not on Library Hub. OPAC SBN attributing authorship to Gaspare Randanini finds a single copy at the Biblioteca comunale Mozzi-Borgetti in Macerata. Ludovisi traces another at the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Roma.
