Esopi vita et fabulæ, lat. Mediol., Ant. Zarotus, 1474. 4°. Gothic letter, 50 leaves. 234- Phrygii philosophi Esopi moralitas de greco in latinu traducta incipit. Rom., Vuendellinus de uuila, 1475. 6. Jul. 4°. 20 leaves.

Begins with a short life of Esop.-Mediol., Zarotus, 1476. 4°. Mediol., Ph. Lavagna, 1480. 4°. Brix. 1481. 4°. and frequently. Respecting an edition without place and date, 4°. Gothic letter (63 leaves, with this colophon, et vnus viuit et regnat in secula seculorum, AMEN.), and respecting another, without place and date, 4°. Gothic letter (19 leaves and 29 lines, with this colophon, FINIS. Deo Gratias Amen.), see Dibdin, bibl. Spenc. I. 243 sq.

235 Æsopus moralisatus cum bono commento. Without place or printer's name, 1489. 4°. Gothic letter, 33 leaves.

Frequently repeated. Containing the metrical translation of Hildebert (but which here consists of 61 fables, whereas Neveletus has only 60); a prose translation of the same fables, which has the greatest resemblance to that of Rimicius; and a dull moral comment.

Da Gioanni aluise e da compagni sui Con diligentia bene impresso fui. On the reverse is a large woodcut. The recto of the second leaf has the following inscription in capital letters: Accii Zuchi .... in Æsopi fabulas interpretatio per rhythmos in libellum Zucharinum inscriptum contexta fœliciter incipit. Next is a Proemio in two sonnets, and then, after the inscription in capital letters, Lepidissimi sopi fabellæ, the fables themselves (66 in number); each of which, besides the metrical Latin translation, is rendered into two Italian sonnets, one of the material (or story), the other of the moral, and illustrated with a woodcut. (The later editions contain 67 fables and 134 sonnets.) The last are not altogether without merit. On the recto of signature P 3 is the following colophon in capitals: Impressum Veronæ Die XXVI Junii. M.CCCC.LXXVIIII. After this follows a Cancionetta, Canzon morale, the Ave Maria in verse, and a Tavola de le preditte fabule. The whole consists of 160 leaves, or 320 pages.-Another edition, mentioned by several bibliographers, Verona, Alvisi, 1478, 25 Jun. 4. is doubted. The catalogue of the Duke of Cassano Serra has an edition of this translation, without place or date, 4°. with woodcuts, which appears to have been printed at Venice about 1480.

pi. Neap., without the printer's name, 1485, 13 Febr. fol.

A fine and very scarce edition, with tolerably good woodcuts; without signatures, catchwords, and pagination, in Roman characters; containing 166 leaves (the 42nd is blank), whereof the first begins with an Italian letter by Fr. del Tuppo allo illust. Honorato de Aragonia, and the last contains a list of the fables and a register. Besides the Latin metrical translation, there is also one in Italian prose, with an allegorical, moral, and historical comment (Tropologia, Allegoria, Exemplum). At the beginning, the life of Esop in Latin and Italian.

[blocks in formation]

Still more rare than the preceding edition, with the signatures a-y IIII. The first leaf contains a woodcut, which serves as a title, with the inscription, Virtus omnia vincit. In the second leaf is the letter of Fr. del Tuppo to Honorat. de Aragonia, then the life and fables of Æsop with woodcuts, which resemble those of the preceding edition, but which deserve notice more for the beauty of their bordering than for the composition of the subjects. On the reverse of the last leaf but one is the following colophon: Fr. del Tuppo.... in vitam Esopi fabulatoris... traductio materno sermone fidelissima et in ejus fabulas allegorie cum exemplis antiquis modernisque finiunt feliciter: impresse Aquile per magistrum Eusanium de Stella

This rare edition, and sought after on account of the plates by Galestrucci, is particularly dear, when after plate 214 are found 4 more leaves of lascivious figures, which are wanting in most copies, and not mentioned in the explanations. On account of the already greatly worn-out plates, the following are of low price: Ed. II. con le annotazioni di Gi. Pt. Bellori. Roma, 1686. 4°. 2 voll. also ib. 1702. 4°. A more recent edition is the work by Dm. de Rossi, see below. J. Gronovius's Latin translation, Amst. 1685. 4°. Franeq. 1694. 4°. and ib. 1699. 4°. is without value on account of the plates being incorrect throughout.

A scarce edition of a very lascivious work. A copy on vellum, 271 francs, at Paris's sale. At first, without place or date, small 8°. in Italic characters (98 pages, without reckoning the title and table of 11 leaves), and the subscription, a li X. d'aprile.
