Description:
Padova: Carlo Conzatti, 1795. Original edition. Very Good. Octavo (16 cm); 29, [3 blank] pages, in one gathering (A\16). Woodcut device on title page, two woodcut headpieces showing putti in architectural setting. Bound in unusual red and orange mottled pastepaper. Slight blemishes to lower edge of wraps. No references found, no other copies located. Author's name from dedicatory letter. All of the information we have about the two cantatas collected here comes from internal evidence. We find no external records except for the presence of a manuscript in library in Rome of a symphony and an opera by one "Paresi," no first name given. The texts here were ostensibly performed for the "podestà" (effectively, the mayor) of Padua, Girolamo Giustiniani, who must have attended graduation festivities for young Niccolò Sant'agnese, of one of Padua's prominent families. The verse (in my judgement) is unmemorable, but we cannot tell how it sounded when set to music (now lost). Carlo Conzatti's page…

Description:
Milano: co' tipi di Luigi Mussi, 1811. Limited ed. Folio (460 x 310 mm); LIII, [I], 157, [3] pages. Edition limited to 150 copies, each numbered in manuscript, with a description of the paper stock, and signed by the typographer Luigi Mussi. Green cloth backstrip over green-and-black marbled paper over pasteboard. Paper label on spine titled in manuscript in block letters. Corners bumped, slight wear to edges. Reference: Bustico 61 ("superba edizione"). Interesting. Mussi published the text of Parini's masterpiece twice before, in 1805 (in smaller folio) and in 1808 (in octavo), both during the period he spent on his own in Parma after leaving his apprenticeship in Bodoni's shop. By the time he set up his shop in Milan (in 1806, while his shop in Parma was still active) he seems to have arrived at the idea, apparently independently, of the modern "limited edition," of choosing special paper, an impressive format, and introducing a personalized statement of limitation numbered and signed in…

N.p. ; Venice: N.p.; Leonardo e Giammario Basaglia, [1803?]; 1784. First edition(?). Very Good. 18 cm; Two titles bound together (Parini's "Poemetti" bound second). 559, [1 blank] ; 162 pages. Half title of second volume: "Poemetti di Giuseppe Parini." Bound in contemporary half vellum over patterned-paper boards. Leather label titled in gilt. Abrasion on upper board. Lower board dusty and somewhat discolored. Reference: Bustico, Bibliografia di Giuseppe Parini, #48. Parini has been called "the greatest Italian poet of his day and the most complete representative of Enlightenment literature" (Cambridge History of Italian Literature). The poems collected here are his life's work. Parini published the first two poems, "Morning" and "Afternoon," in quick succession in 1763 and 1765. He intended to finish them with "The evening" and publish them all together under the title "The Day," as a single satirical poem illustrating the daily life of a young Milanese noble. But "Evening" never…

References: Duveen 460; DSB X, 366-67; Garrison-Morton 2479; Norman 1655.

The research on fermentation and putrefaction led him to the epochal discovery of bacteria, from which he developed the germ-theory of disease.

Abrasion damage to plate 5. Bookplate of Andras Gedeon. References: PMM 336c; Garrison & Morton 2475; Gedeon, "Science and Technology in medicine," #50 (this copy). This volume contains both Pasteur's landmark experiments in fermentation, including the swan-necked culture vessels (illustrated on the engraved plate) which remained sterile despite being open to the atmosphere, and spectral analysis of salts by their color bands by Gustav Kirchhoff and Wilhelm Bunsen. The experiments described herein were the downfall of the theory of spontaneous generation and also eventually led to a better understanding of the brewing and fermentation process in beer and wine.
