Il Dialogo Dell'oratore Di Cicerone
In Vinegia: Appresso Gabriele Giolito De Ferrari, 1547. 12mo. Item #025426
8, 8, 176 leaves. The contents, register and colophone have been inserted into the front as is the case of many copies. Italian language translated from Latin of Cicero's De Oratore. Lodovico Dolce was a Ventian humanist whose translations allowed the knowledge of classical authors to spread to the wider Italian population. His printer's device of a phoenix arising from the flames appears in two different variations once at the end of the tavola and another at the end of the text.
