Late 19th-century binding, but pages are clean and well-preserved. The biblical text of Deuteronomy is presented side by side in Latin and the vernacular (Italian), enriched with exegetical commentaries based on the tradition of the Church Fathers. Engraved headpieces, initials, and tailpieces. Handwritten ownership mark by the painter Mario Miglioretto. 448 pp. 2) THIRTY NOVELLAS BY MESSER GIOVANNI BOCCACCI, SELECTED FROM HIS DECAMERON, ed. Milan, Francesco Agnelli, 1745. In 8° format. Later 19th-century binding, with the spine missing, but the pages are clean and well-preserved.

The edition includes the famous and dramatic “Description of the Plague” (the Black Death in Florence of 1348), which in Boccaccio’s text serves as a narrative frame introducing the voluntary exile of the ten young storytellers. Manuscript marks and glosses in the text. 240 pp.
