    Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Contemporary limp vellum, "CORTONA" in a contemporary hand on spine; 163x115 mm; [95] leaves, including 11 blanks at end; manuscript in Italian, written in multiple cursive hands in black or brown ink, recto and verso, on laid paper. Spine tips chipped; rear joint cracked; occasional marginal soiling and foxing; dampstaining in upper margins in second half of volume. White ink shelf number and small sticker on spine; St. Charles Borromeo Seminary stamp on title; accession number on next leaf. Later fair copy of a poem by Moneti on the 1677 visit by a Jesuit Father to deliver Lenten sermons at Cortona, ridiculing him, the town, and its inhabitants. "The poem is a brutal satire of religion and society, often expressed with a crude, salacious, and offensive realism. It is no wonder that the author, many years later, thought it necessary to write a complete retraction" (De Filippis). The text first appeared in print in 1759. Moneti (1635-1712) was a Franciscan monk and miscellaneous writer, chiefly of almanacs and satires. See Michele de Filippis, The Literary Riddle in Italy in the Seventeenth Century, pages 149-53.
