About This Item
Florence: Le Monnier, 1861. Second edition, corrected and expanded.. Good +. 16 cm; 61, [3] pages. In later marbled boards in conventional style. Boards good plus; text trimmed close at fore-edge, not affecting text.
In a tradition with deep roots in Mediterranean culture, and more recently in the successful careers of performing poets of the turn of the century, Giannina Milli took to the stage reciting improvised poetry to audience suggestions. The principal themes of her inspiration were patriotism, revolution against occupying powers, and the unification of Italy. She was deeply involved in the intellectual life of the nation, as shown by her thousands of surviving letters (at the National Library of Florence) and photographs.

About Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio
Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio owes its name and its inspiration to the traditional Italian studio bibliografico. These small antiquarian bookshops, typically run by individuals who combine deep scholarship with a love of the printed object, remind us that underlying the words "study" and "studio" is the Latin term for zeal and devotion, studium. Since 1993, my goal has been to match discerning collectors with extraordinary books and manuscripts.
