All though the title suggests this is the complete set of satires there are only 8 of the original ones published by Sergardi. They satirise the well known author and lawyer Gravina who is here called Philodeme. Often seen as a satirical take on Roman/Vatican Society, although Sergardi was close to Pope Alexander VIII (Willems 2170). *These works were exposed as forgeries by Brunet but attributed by him to publishers in Naples, later correctly to Rome by Du Roure in his Analecta Biblio according to Willems. Handsomely printed on fine quality paper with wide margins and extensive notes on each of the satires in this volume. 2nd edition, 1st published in 1696. 1 volume. Hardcover.
