Full-Leather. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. [18] + 376 pages, with frontispiece illustration. Original 17th century vellum binding. Hinges strong. A few very old handwritten notes on the inside rear cover. According to an article by Nicholas Badolato, of the University of Bologna, "Noris's historiographical and ideological interests found expression in a voluminous treatise entitled L'animo eroe (Venice, Girolamo Albrizzi, 1689), a compendium of «historical plays by the most famous ancients» of Greece and Latin, dedicated to Prince Ferdinand of Tuscany (1663-1713), with whom he had already come into contact the year before for the Florentine performances of Il Greco in Troia and who would later be the dedicatee of another Venetian drama, Furio Camillo (1692). The heroic soul is linked to a genre cultivated among Italian men of letters since the humanistic age: the biography of illustrious figures from ancient history. . . . The Heroic Soul collects fifty medallions dedicated to philosophers, sovereigns and men of government whose most famous actions can be considered models, sometimes positive sometimes negative, of moral and political conduct. But how can such a historiographical anthology be placed in the production of a poet who worked full-time in the opera theatre? By his own express declaration, the author considers the historian's research strictly connected with dramatic writing. This is clearly evident from the first lines of the preface "To the reader" of the treatise (p. [xi]): 'How can a single pen explain two flights at once? A single archer aim his arrow at two points? A single traveler walk two paths? I have written prose and composed rhymes at the same time. In the time I composed my last dramas, performed in the theaters of Venice, and perhaps read by you, I wrote the prose that you are now reading. I have had both applications. Whether I have written well or badly, judge for yourself, for your judgment will serve as a rule.' Six of the characters illustrated in Animo eroe - Marcellus, Marc'Antonio, Furio Camillo, Attilius Regulus, Cato the Younger and Virginius - are in fact eponyms of as many dramas" by Noris.…
