Description

Beautiful letterpress on the title page (lying man looking at the crescent moon) in ornamental frame. The publisher's name, Francesco Sansovino, son of Iacopo, polygraph, translator and publisher, appears in the colophon (In Venetia, after Francesco Sansouino) with the date 1561, instead of 1560 as indicated on the title page. The work is his translation of the famous treatise Opus agriculturae or De re rustica by Rutilio Tauro Emiliano Palladio, author of the 4th century AD, who had great fortune for its didactic and experiential character (the first translation is from 1472, in Venice) . The work consists of 13 books: the first, introductory, more generically dedicated to the agricultural and family economy, the other 12 dedicated to agricultural work specific to each month of the year, with a decidedly original layout that emphasizes the practical purpose of the treaty. In some editions, a fourteenth dedicated specifically to grafts was added to the 13 books (De insitione, in elegiac couplets), not present in our edition. At the end of the book is added a general vocabulary of all the items used in this book, in need of declaration and warning and a table of all the subjects contained in this work.
