Relazione d'una nuova generazione d'uomini scoperta dal capitano Radoteur presso il fiume Marannon, ossia delle Amazzoni, da lui scritta a un suo amico, e trasportata dal Franzese in Italiano. Radoteur, Capitano (Gaspare Giuseppe Maria di Po). Published by Francesco Locatelli, Bergamo 1770. 8vo up to 9½" tall., 42pp., final blank leaf. Very light foxing. Account of a new generation of men discovered by Captain Radoteur (Doubter or, Dotard) near the Marannon River, or the Amazons, written by him to a friend, and translated from French into Italian 1770. "?an imaginary account that describes how a French captain named Radoteur made an expedition, with permission from the Portuguese authorities in Paris, to the Amazon, where he discovered a tribe of four-legged men". Oraes, Rubens Borba de. Bibliographia Brasiliana. A satirical response to Pietro Moscat's famous academic speech given at the University of Pavia, 1770. "Discorso delle corporee differenze essenziali che passano tra la struttura dei bruti e la umana". Discourse on the essential corporeal differences which exist between the structure of brutes and the human. Moscati argues that there are no innate or divine anatomical differences and upright posture is the only true physical distinction; humans are structured for erect posture, while brutes (animals) are primarily quadrupedal. Contrary to the idea of an improving evolution, Moscati considered the upright posture an unnatural forcing of physics and biology and the cause of countless physical ailments for humans, appearing as a degeneration of the state of nature.

8vo (132 x 216 mm). 42 pp., final blank leaf. Contemporary marbled wrappers. Very rare satirical pamphlet: "a fictitious account of travels in northern Brazil involving the 'discovery' of a race of four-legged people" (James Ford Bell Library). Purportedly translated from the French of one "Captain Dotard", it targets the young Italian anatomist and obstetrician Pietro Moscati (1739-1824). - In ostensibly reporting the discovery of a quadruped "new kind of human" on the Peruvian Marañón River, the principal tributary of the Amazon, the anonymous author pokes fun at Moscati's just-published "Discorso delle corporee differenze essenziali che passano tra la struttura dei bruti e la umana", in which the physician had argued that the upright carriage of humans was an aberration of nature and man was originally designed to walk on all fours like beasts, while his bipedal posture proved to be the source of many diseases and other misfortunes. Moscati's "Discorso" attracted some notoriety in the early 1770s, and even Kant published a critical review of it in the Königsbergsche Gelehrte und Politische Zeitungen (1771). The Italian economist Pietro Verri is known to have sent his brother a copy of the present pamphlet on 29 August 1770, together with a letter in which he reveals the author as the "conte Po", that is Gaspare Giuseppe Maria conte Po, son of Gaspare Ferdinando, conte di Nerviano e Garbagnate (cf. Physis, Rivista internazionale di storia della scienza 3 [1961], p. 169). - Some duststaining; wrappers worn with damage to lower cover (extending to final blank and margin of last text leaf).
