Add to basket15 volumes bound as 5. First illustrated Italian edition: a charming edition of the Heyaryek-Rouz or Thousand and One Days, so-called to "give the work an air of originality" (Chauvin IV, 124). A Persian manuscript of this work was given to Francois Petit de la Croix in Isfahan in 1675, but enjoyed far fewer editions and transla…tions than the Alf layla wa-layla. As Chauvin notes, it cannot be determined whether the Thousand and one days or the Thousand and One Nights was composed first, nevertheless, to this day the Heyarek-Rouz is much less well-known to the Western world (IV, 123f.). Chauvin quotes one commentator who declares the Heyarek-Rouz "much more ingenious and more realistic, as it sometimes includes marvels, following the taste of the Oriental". The lovely frontispieces are drawn by Pietro Zandomeneghi and engraved by Giorgio Buttazzon.The bindings show signs of wear, with some worming to the spines, occasional light worming to the gutters (blank margins). Otherwise in good condition.l Graesse IV, 525; OPAC SBN IT\ICCU\TO0\0988443 (12 copies, incl. 8 incomplete); WorldCat 1403675888 (and other numbers; 1 incomplete copy, also in OPAC SBN); cf. this edition not in Chauvin.

Very rare, highly remarklable pirated edition in five volumes of the Heyaryek-Rouz or Thousand and One Days, so called to "give the work an air of originality" (Chauvin IV, 124).

Chauvin quotes one commentator who declares the Heyarek-Rouz "much more ingenious and more realistic, as it sometimes includes marvels, following the taste of the Oriental".The place of printing given on the title page of the present edition is Venice, but the costs were borne by the well-known Neapolitan publisher Giacomo Antonio Vinaccia, and the books were also sold in Naples, in the Corridoio del Consiglio. It is known that Vinaccia drew on the great publishing pool of Venice for many of his publications, creating actual counterfeits, and it is thought that even Venetian publishers themselves relied on his presses to encourage the distribution of their works in the south as well, without having to pay duties or apply for printing licences (cf. A. Scannapieco). In 1784, the following year, an identical edition appeared, giving Naples as the place of printing.The wrappers are worn, mainly around the spines, the edges of the leaves are somewhat frayed.
