Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. [TORRE, Alfonso de la] Sommario di tutte le scienze dal magnifico M. Domenico Delfino.Small 8vo. Venice, Giolito, 1585.Venice, Giolito, 1585.[28]f (several misbound) + 360p. Italic letter. With woodcut printer's device on title and a number of woodcut historiated initials and other typographical ornaments in text. Antiqued sheep. Early edition of this encyclopaedia of science, philosophy and the liberal arts. although published as an original work by the Italian Domenico Delfino (Fl. 1550), it was in fact a translation of Alfonso de la Torre's Vision deleitable (first published c.1480-3). Condemned by Graesse as a shameful plagiary, the work is judged more generously by Palau who states that the manuscript was discovered by Delfino's son who, believing it to be his father's own work, edited it as such. What is extraordinary is that the plagiary appears to have passed largely unnoticed and was even translated into Spanish a century later. Conceived as a compendium of the knowledge of the time, the book includes remarks on astronomy and astrology, arithmentic and geometry, medicine and the medical properties of plants, natural history, the magic arts, and linguistics. There is an interesting section on animal behaviour which comments on the partiality of dolphins to human company, and a discussion of the point of articulation in Oriental, Western and Mediterranean speech as respectively guttural, dental and palatal. The first Italian edition was published in 1556. From the Arata Collection with stamps and signature in title margin; a small wormhole in title. This edition not in Adams, British Library, Durling, Wellcome Library. See Bongi, Giolito I, pp503-5 Brunet V, 887, Graesse 6, II, 174 & Palau 335327.

Vellum. Zustand: Very Good. None (illustrator). A very scarce translation of Alfonso de la Torre's important humanist work on morals and human wisdom, here translated into Italian by Domencio Delfino, who was wrongly thought to be the sole author of this work. A very scarce work. Written in Italian. Being the second Italian edition of this allegorical work on moral philosophy and the 'seven liberal arts'.This work is an octavo, with the signatures running as *8, A-V8, X7. With a register leaf to the rear. Collated from Jisc from a copy held at the University College London Library, complete. An Italian translation of 'Vision Delectable' by Alfonso de la Torre, which was originally published in Spanish in circa 1440. Though it is a translation, this edition wrongly attributes Domenico Delfino as being the sole author of this work, and was issued as a work of Delinfo's after his death. It seems that the first edition by Torre was so scarce that it became forgotten, and, ironically, in the 1620s, Francisco de Caceres worked on translating Delfino's work into Spanish. Torre was a Pre-Renaissance Spanish poet. His work was supposedly composed in the Court of Navarra for the Prince of Viana, and was thought to have been a response to two questions raised to Torre by Juan de Beaumont, the question of what is the end of man. The work was considered to be one of the summits of Spanish humanism. His work was also influenced by the Jewish philosophical work 'Guide of the Perplexed'. The aim of the work is to be a treatise on human wisdom, and is a summary of many prominent aspects of science, containing chapters focussing on arithmancy, geometry, religion, music, politics, astrology, and many other scientific and academic subjects. The first past deals with liberal arts, metaphysics, and natural science, and the second part looks at moral philosophy. Torre was a bachelor and maybe a Jewish convert.
