Item description from seller

Cm. 35,5, pp. (32) 840 (44). Magnifica antiporta incisa in rame con ritratto di Montaigne, bel marchio tip. al frontespizio in rosso e nero, graziose testatine, finalini e numerosi capilettera xilografici. Legatura coeva in piena pelle, dorso a 6 nervi con titoli su tassello rosso e ricchi fregi in oro agli scomparti; tagli spruzzati. Abile restuauro integrativo alla parte alta del dorso, alcune spellature ai piatti, sporadiche e lievi fioriture. Impercettibile rinforzo in carta giapponese (senza alcuna perdita di carta originale) all'angolo inferiore e al margine interno del frontespizio. Esemplare nel complesso fresco e ben conservato. Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592), celebre filosofo e pensatore politico nativo di Bordeaux, morì nel 1592 proprio mentre stava compilando i suoi celebri Saggi. Si tratta di un'ampia raccolta di brani di varia estensione e di vari argomenti, scritti senza seguire un progetto prestabilito. L'A., attraverso un'abile tecnica retorica, coinvolge il lettore riuscendo a definire un nuovo stile narrativo. Non comune edizione edizione parigina, probabilmente l'ultima in-folio a essere impressa nel Seicento. Così Brunet, III-1837: “Bonne edition faite sur celle de 1635, elle à eté partagée entre plusieurs libraires”. Cfr. anche Tchmerzine, IV-902 per l'edizione del 1652 dello stesso stampatore; Kvk. . . . . . . 0. .…
