Besides the 'Canti' of Lorenzo de Medici, this volume contains those of 47 other poets. A few of the poems are in Italian dialects. "The merits of these Carnival Songs are principally to be estimated by the purity of the Florentine diction, which is allowed to be there preserved in its most unadulterated state. They are frequently cited by the Academicians della Crusca, in their celebrated dictionary, as authorities for the Italian tongue, and consequently composed a part of those works, selected for the purity of their style, and known by the name of Testi di lingua."-Roscoe. "A strange existence, truly, was that of Lorenzo! After working with all the power of his intellect and his will at the making of new laws, which should crush out some last remnant of liberty-after using his influence to obtain some new decree of confiscation or sentence of death, he would enter the Platonic Academy, and dispute with vehemence on virtue and the immortality of the soul-issuing thence, and mingling with a company of utterly depraved young men, he would sing his Canti Carnascialeschi,' or Carnival Songs (of infamous celebrity), and give himself up to wine and women, then return home again, and at table, in the society of Pulci and Politian, recite verses and discourse on poetry, and to each of these pursuits he gave himself up so wholly that each seemed to be the sole aim of his life."-Prof. Villari, Life of Savonarola, quoted in the Athenæum, Aug. 18, 1860. 8048 VARCHI (B.)

La premiere édition de cet ouvrage parut, Rome, 1717, mais elle fut arrêtée et saisie lorsquil n'y avait encore que 320 pages d'imprimées, parce que l'ouvrage contenait une satire continuelle des académiciens de la Crusca. Comme l'édition est fort rare, on en a fait une léimpression in 4to, "con aggiunte di Martelli, A-Z," avec un supplément, sans date, mais sous l'indication de Manila nell isole Filippine. This work was never perfected, but burnt by the hangman, by order of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, who conceived himself injuriously mentioned therein. The inhabitants of Siena believe the dialect of the Italian Language as spoken by them the purest, and have therefore at various times roughly handled the Academy della Crusca. 8104 GIGLI, Vocabulario Cateriniano, con aggiunta, seconda impressione, 4to. portrait, hf. bd. uncut, 18s Manilla, nell' Isole Filippine, s. a.

Though professing only to record the history of Urbino, the birth-place of Raphael, it largely illustrates the history and condition of Italy during the Middle Ages, especially her literature, arts, and artists. The work has been the labour of a life; and the materials employed, manuscript and printed, exceed 500 volumes, as will be seen by the printed list of them, extending to eight closely printed pages. The illustrations were engraved in Italy from authentic sources, and have been highly praised for their truth and delicacy. 8115 FERRARI, Histoire des Révolutions d'Italie, ou Guelfes et Gibelins, 4 vols. 8vo. cloth, 12s Paris, 1858 1834 8116 ROSSETTI (G.)
