Zustand: Good. In 8, pp. (8) + 62 + (1) di errata + (1b). Lieve strappetto al p. post. Tiratura di 12 esemplari su carta rosa per le nozze Van-Axel Castelli-Milinovich di questo volgarizzamento di un'opera di Ortensio Lando, scrittore del Cinquecento, che descrive, a mo' di dialogo satirico, i costumi e il carattere delle diverse citta' italiane. Segue quindi un discorso sull'eccellenza delle donne. Molto curiosa la prima parte in cui sono esposti caratteri e bizzarie di varie citta' italiane: 'i Mantovani pelano gli ospiti, i Parmigiani li trattano cortesemente. Non troppo a lungo vengono accolti i forestieri dai Modenesi. i Napoletani sono famosi vendicatori delle ingiurie ed uguale inclinazione i Ferraresi e i Piacentini, di mal animo perdonano i Fiorentini. gli Astigiani facilmente sopportano qualunque ingiuria.'.

Not in Grendler. This is an essay about death. In particular, it is a eulogy on the death of young Elizabetta Dotta, who (it is stated in the text) died, recently married, at the age of 16 years, 8 months, 24 days and 12 hours. (The cause of her death is not given.) It does not indulge in a moment's sorrow over the young woman's early demise. Instead, it is an extended encomium of death itself, praising death as liberation from the essential misery of life in this corrupt and depraved world. As such, it is an eloquent statement of philosophical pessimism, the tradition which views life as the soul's exile, as suffering, and sees death as a preferable alternative. While the text is not signed, the author is presumed to be Ortensio Lando, the uncomfortable, peripatetic humanist who never stayed in one place for very long, either physically or philosophically. "What is life?" Lando asks. "Smoke, a dream, a running shadow, a ship that leaves no trace, an arrow shot to its destination.". …

Zustand: Good. due parti in un volume in-8 (155x100 mm), numerazione unica di pp. 62, (2), buona legatura in pergamena floscia di riutilizzo con tracce di elegante grafia latina dell'epoca. Caratteri corsivo e greco, impresa tipogr. del Giolito sul titolo e, altra, in fine, grandi iniziali istoriate. Edizione originale, con dedica a Bernardo Michas. Le p. 35-36 contengono: "Di m. Lelio Capilupo per la venuta de la s. Marchesana de la Padula a Ferrara", "Per lo partire de la s. Marchesana da Ferrara" e un componimento "Del Bonardo Frattegiano"; Maria de Cardona (Napoli 1509-63) fu Marchesa della Terra di Padula ma soprattutto moglie di Francesco d'Este, figlio di Alfonso I e di Lucrezia Borgia. Per la sua singolare bellezza e la sua cultura fu lodata da molti poeti del suo tempo. Qui il Lando e ne ammirò gli occhi lucenti, neri, lunghetti, vivaci e pieni di letizia, il corpo leggiadro il cuore magnanimo, paragonando Maria  alla Selvaggia di Cino e a Beatrice e Laura. In fine (pp. 55-62) vi è una lettera di Girolamo Ruscelli con epigrammi greci e latini di Giovanni M. e Anichino Bonardi e di F. Robortello e una canzone spagnola di Alonso Núñez de Reinoso, poeta di Guadalajara,  il tutto in lode di Lucrezia Gonzaga. Di Lucrezia sono note lettere a Bonardo, alla Fratta, al fratello Federico Gonzaga a Gazuolo e a Ortensio Lando.  L'autore, nato intorno al 1512, adottò diversi pseudomini: Come Philalethes Polytopiensis civis (1535) esaltando in chiave filorepubblicana la libera città-stato di Lucca compose  le Forcianae quaestiones. Nel 1540 sotto il nome di Tranquillo fu introdotto a Ferrara nell'Accademia degli Elevati. Nel 1542 servì Marco Vigerio Della Rovere, arcivescovo di Senigallia, Galeotto Pico, conte della Mirandola, e soprattutto Cristoforo Madruzzo. Egli  godette di una notevole fortuna tra il XVII e il XIX secolo, in Francia e in Inghilterra, mentre la censura ecclesiastica ostacolò la sua riproposizione in Italia.

Impresa editoriale al titolo e altra diversa al verso dell'ultimo foglio, numerose belle iniziali istoriate. Prima ed unica edizione dell'opera del Lando (Milano ca. 1512 - Venezia 1553 ), medico, viaggiatore, scrittore satirico, fu membro dell' Accademia degli Elevati col nome di Tranquillo. L'opera contiene una quantità di interessanti aneddoti e di appunti storici e bio-bibliografici classificati in sette ''cataloghi'', ciascuno preceduto da una dedica ad un illustre personaggio e da un elenco degli argomenti (ad esempio catalogo dei belli, dei brutti, delle meretrici, dei ricchi, dei poveri.). Le liste sono divise tra narrazioni di fatti e nomi di antichi e di moderni personaggi; il Lando, in una lettera aggiunta in fine alla sua opera indirizzata a Lucrezia Gonzaga, si lamenta però di essere ''stato isforzato di tacere. i traditori, gli ingiusti, i perfidi, i crudeli.'' a lui contemporanei su suggerimento degli editori. Curioso che l'autore si sia registrato in diversi cataloghi tra cui quello degli ignoranti, degli infelici, dei brutti, degli iracondi. Interessante, rara edizione, ottimo esemplare.

Ray, "Writing Gender in Women's Letter Collections of the Italian Renaissance" (Toronto, 2009); Serena Pezzini, "Dissimulazione e paradosso in Ortensio Lando," in "Italianistica" 31:1 (2002) pp. 67-83; Natalina Bellucci, "Lettere di molte valorose donne.e di alcune pettegolette, ovvero: di un libro di lettere di Ortensio Lando," in Quondam, ed., "Le carte messaggere: rhetorica e modelli di communicazione epistolare."(Rome, 1981) pp. 255-76. Lettere di molte valorose donne is a collection of model letters written by women to other women, demonstrating (in the context of the "querelle des femmes") that women are in no way inferior to men in eloquence and education. Topics range widely, embracing the commonplaces but with the addition of issues such as marriage, childbirth, the struggle for education, and the attractiveness of men, or lack thereof. The text seems to provide an intimate glimpse into a female network in which advice and comfort are shared. Authorship of Lettere di molte valorose donne puzzles scholars to this day. Published by the powerful Venetian house of Gabriel Giolito de' Ferrari, there is no attribution on the title page or in the front matter. Lando is only mentioned in the gratulatory verses at the end of the book, where his famous peers, Dolce, Aretino, Sansovino, and Pestalossa, celebrate him for the "copious sweat and considerable personal expenses" that he put into compiling the book. Succumbing to historical bias, nineteenth-century scholarship denied the authorship of the letters from the women who wrote them, insisting that Lando wrote the entire text. Recent research restores the texts to their female writers, and takes the view that Lando, in collaboration with his great friend and sometime patron, Lucrezia Gonzaga, may have done some heavy editing. The eccentric, peripatetic humanist Ortensio Lando was never comfortable with the noble courtesies of his Renaissance world. During his lifetime (ca. 1510-ca. 1559), he was in the top tier of Italian public intellectuals, but unlike his still-famous peers (Dolce, Sansovino, Bembo) he refused to buckle down. He attached himself to Rabelais's circle in Lyon while he worked in Gryphius's print shop there. He was especially close with Étienne Dolet there, the champion of free speech later hanged for heresy. He rambled on to Erasmus's Basel, and then to Germany, and returning to Italy he drifted through various Italian university towns (from Lucca, to Pisa, to Trent). He spent about ten years in Venice, and died, probably in Naples, in the late 1550s. Sometimes he published under his own name, but he frequently used pseudonyms or indeed no name. Despite this unsettled existence, he liked to call himself "Tranquillo.".…

Lando (c.1505c.1555) 'was the author of three Latin and several Italian prose works which all show, in different ways and to different degrees, his learning, love of paradox, and disrespect for established reputations and institutions His most successful work, the Paradossi, first published in Lyons in 1543, humorously subverts accepted truths His religious views were always suspect to the authorities, and all his works were put on the Index in 1564' (Oxford Companion to Italian Literature). Manuscript fragment: The wrapper is formed from a complete bifolium (154 x 220mm, leaves consecutive) from a Sarum Processional, in Latin (England, mid-fifteenth century); single columns of text and music, four-line staves ruled in red with notation in dark brown ink, accompanying text in a neat gothic hand, eight lines of music and eight lines of text per page, a six-line initial 'S' (Salve festa dies) with full-page border on verso of first leaf, the initial in a leafy design in colours on a burnished gold ground, bar decorated with flowers and acanthus in shades of blue and pink, a two-line initial 'A' (Adoremus crucis signaculum) in blue with red pen flourishing, smaller initials in blue and gold, rubrics in red; verso of first leaf and recto of second leaf soiled and worn with text and decoration rubbed, corners slightly creased. The two leaves are from an English Processional; a small portable book of chants used on the feasts of the year when the liturgy required priests and choir to walk in procession singing around the church. Much of the text here comprises the chant 'Salve festa dies' sung at the dedication of a church (with the rubric 'In dedicacione ecclesie'). This is preceded by the chant 'Adoremus crucis signaculum', with the rubric 'In dominicis diebus in stacione ante crucem', and by 'Benedictus es domine in firmamento celi'. Provenance: the inscription to the title is perhaps that of Thomas Skeffington (15501600), Fellow Commoner of Jesus College, Cambridge, and sheriff of Leicester.

Extremely rare Paris edition of a work that explores love, nature, and morality through a series of question and answers. The present copy has been beautifully bound by Georges Trautz (1808-1879) and Antoine Bauzonnet (1795-1882), the leading bookbinders of 19th-century France. This engaging Humanist text was originally published in Venice in 1552 and quickly became popular, with numerous editions and translations recorded. The first French translation appeared in Lyon in 1558 and was subsequently reprinted several times. The present Paris edition, however, appears to be particularly scarce and is only recorded by Gay.Ortensio Lando, or Landi (ca. 1510-ca. 1560) was an author and translator. He studied arts in Milan and medicine in Bologna, but his temper and heterodox religious views repeatedly brought him into conflict with the authorities. Forced to leave Italy in 1534, he settled for a time at Lyon, where he met and worked with the celebrated printer and humanist Étienne Dolet (1509-1546). He moved back and forth between Italy, Switzerland, and France several times, but returned once more to Italy, where he was welcomed in Brescia by the Venetian governor Antonio da Mula. After travelling extensively through Italy and attending the opening stages of the Council of Trent, he eventually settled in Venice, where he spent the remainder of his life.Other than the present work, he translated works by Cicero and Thomas More, and authored a series of twenty short essays defending unconventional propositions, such as that poverty is better than wealth. His works often contain comments on the morality and customs of the time, innovative philosophical and literary ideas, and sometimes even overt attacks on the prevailing religious ideas of his time. All of his books were placed onto the Index.With the bookplate of D. Labouly (20th century) tipped onto the verso of the first free flyleaf, and the gilt stamp of the Parisian bookbinding studio of Trautz-Bauzonnet (1851-1879) on the front turn-in. The binding shows only minor traces of use. The leaves are lightly browned, the ink from the bookplate has transferred slightly to the opposite page.

Zustand: Very Good. First edition. Octavo (16 cm); 318 [2] pages. Woodcut device on title page and on last page. Woodcut initials. Bound in recent vellum in period style, yapp edges, titled in ink on spine. Early 20th-century bibliographical note bound in. Marginal annotations in contemporary hand. Leaf a ii, the dedicatory letter, present in two states, the cancel addressed to Johann Jakob Fugger closing with Lando's name, and the original leaf addressed to Christoph Mielich and not signed, as usual. Small perforation in the cancel, affecting a word. Occasional light stains, darker on last leaf. References: Bongi I, 368; Melzi II, 391; BM Italian, 377 (1556 ed.); Fontanini, II, 117; Grendler, 29. The title promises four sets of "questions and their solutions," and indeed that was the plan. Lando wrote Q&A on four topics: medical questions (including dietary and aging functions), ethical questions, questions about religion, and questions about love and sex. It was the love and sex part that raised the eyebrows of the censors, and neither Lando or his publisher Giolito could get permissions to print it as the book was going to press. As Giolito himself declares in a postscript to the reader: "I promised you four books of doubts, but since I haven't yet been granted a license for the doubts about love, I'm forced to give you only three. Be well and enjoy as much of the book as I could give you." (The license came later, and the text appeared in later editions.) This unfinished text with its publisher's apology represents a fascinating birthmark on the 16th-century book trade.The Q&A ranges over hundreds of topics, calling upon the author's medical training (much involved with the humors and temperaments associated with various organs, objects, and creatures), his classical erudition, and his training in the Augustinian order. The three sections together provide comprehensive insight into 16th century medicine and popular religious and moral thought.The odd matter of two versions of the dedication page, leaf A ii, is not easily explained. We suspect (with some justification) that Lando sought patronage for the same work in different locations, knowing that Protestant Germany rarely spoke with Catholic Italy and vice versa. He might have found different backers in different markets. We know that to be the case with at least one other book of Lando's, the "Sermoni Funebri" (1549), where some copies are dedicated to Fugger and others to Niccolo degli Alberti. That case is known and recorded. We find no recorded instance of the alternate dedication of "Quattro libri dei dubbi" to Fugger, and no record of the author being identified by signing the dedication letter in any other copy. The "Quattro libri de dubbi" was quickly translated into French (Lyon, 1558) and by William Painter into English, entitled "Delectable demaundes and pleasaunt questions, with their severall aunswers." (1566, and again 1640). …

Lando s major work in which he undertakes to contradict all sorts of common opinions presenting arguments for paradoxes instead. In a way he does follow an old tradtion of philosophical argumentation when he claims for instance that poverty is better than wealth. His criticism of society, the church and authorities is though rather harsh in places and led to the title being put on the index of forbidden books. - Here with the rare and even more absurd confutation that has been published anonymously and in which Lando, as if he were an antagonist, attacks his own work and does his best to prove yet again the contrary of what he had just established. This again gives ample opportunity for criticism of society and the authorities. - Endpapers with old annotations, a little browning, somewhat dusty, first and last leaves with dog s ears and a little fraying binding wrinkled.…

Ortensio Lando si firma con lo pseudonimo Philaletes Polytopiensis. Il volume raccoglie quattro importanti trattati di viaggio: il Commentariolus de arte apodemica seu vera peregrinandi ratione di H. Pyrckmair, guida sull'arte del viaggiare tra le prime del genere; i De peregrinatione et agro Neapolitano libri duo del giurista sassone Hieronymus Turler; i due libri di Guglielmo Grataroli De regimine iter agentium; e infine le Forcianae quaestiones di Ortensio Landi. Pyrckmair, tra i pionieri della letteratura di viaggio, basò il suo trattato sulle esperienze maturate in Germania, Italia e Francia, offrendo consigli pratici e metodici al viaggiatore. Turler, nel suo De peregrinatione (1574), codificò invece le consuetudini del viaggio accademico, arricchendo l'opera con un'ampia e vivace descrizione del suo itinerario a Napoli.
