[BILLARDON DE SAUVIGNY (Louis-Edme)]. Racconti orientali dell'idioma tedesco nell'italiana favella recati. Bologna: A San Tommaso d'Aquino, 1771. - In-8, 181 x 117 : iv, 127 pp. Half brown calf, spine ribbed, speckled edges (19th century binding, spine rebound). The only Italian edition of this collection of 62 oriental tales presented as the work of a certain "Amed Ben Mohamed", translated from the German by Francesco Mugliorini. In fact, this is the Italian translation of the Apologues orientaux published in Paris in 1764, written by playwright, librettist, poet and polygrapher Louis-Edme Billardon de Sauvigny (1736?-1812) under the pseudonym Amed Ben Mohamed. The edition features a handsome intaglio title vignette and initials. Minor light spotting. Restoration to the top of the title and to the edge of folio D8. Bound in suite: - La filosofia di un turco A 81. Code, A 3. Penne D'Airone A 2. Spennacchi, E A 1. Collana di Smeraldi. Constantinopoli, 1780 - 62 pp. First edition of the Italian translation of the work attributed to the Dalmatian writer and adventurer Stjepan Zanović (1751-1786) entitled in French La Poésie et la philosophie d'un turc à 81 queues, à 3 plumes de héron, à 2 aigrettes et à 1 collier d'émeraudes. It first appeared in 1779, or 1775 according to some sources, but no physical copies to that date seem to have been actually recorded. Published under the false address of "Constantinopoli", this Italian edition is said to have been printed in Florence by Giovanni Battista Stecchi or, according to other sources, in Venice (cf. Parenti, Dizionario dei luoghi di stampa, p. 70). - Amusemens à la grecque. Copenhagen: Pierre Steinmann, 1768. - (1 f.), 190 pp. and (1 f.). Complete collection of this periodical published in 24 issues from April to September 1767. Published anonymously, it is thought to have been written entirely by Nicolas-Jacques-André Yanssens Descampeaux (1732-1795), a native of Rouen who was one of Prince Frederick's teachers until 1771. Apart from 5 verse pieces, each issue includes a prose essay or story on various subjects such as sublunar eclipses, the study of languages, the coronation of kings, unjust treatment of sex, Chinese gardens, the philosopher's stone, etc. This periodical would have taken over from another entitled Amusemens littéraires. The epithet "à la grecque" refers to a fashionable hairstyle and announces the humorous tone of the publication. (cf. Dictionnaire des journaux 1600-1789, edited by Jean Sgard, Paris, Universitas, 1991: notice 92). The last issue is a second printing, with the word "Fin" printed on page 190. The rare first issue is marked "Fin de la première demie année" ("End of the first half-year"). - Lettere scritte da Donna di Senno e di spirito per ammaestramento del suo amante. Venize: Antonio Graziosi, 1764. - 71 pp. New edition of this rare book first published in 1737. It contains twelve anonymous letters sent by a lady to her lover, younger and less experienced in life. This cultured and refined lady offers us a delightful fresco of 18th-century customs. The author tells her naïve reader the most hidden secrets of the feminine world, revealing, with a hint of malice, all the tricks that women devise to deceive and trap men. Some brown spots. Copy in 19th-century binding, but with the spine rebound and modern in imitation, with a title-piece stamped "Variétés amusantes". Wormholes in the middle of the volume, mainly affecting the Amusemens à la grecque leaves, with damage to the text, and in the lower margin of the last leaves of the volume, without damage to the text.
