Description:
Orléans, Da' Torchj di L.P. Couret de Villeneuve, 1787.. FIRST EDITION. 8°, contemporary speckled calf, smooth spine gilt in six compartments, red spine labels in second and third compartments with titles (some wear to edges and hinges, slightly defective at head and foot of spine), marbled endleaves, text block edges marbled. Woodcut vignette on title page. Woodcut headpieces and ornaments. Scattered light stains and browning. Overall good to very good condition. 502 pp. *** First edition thus.

Metastasio's libretto became the basis of Mozart's Il re pastore, which premiered in 1775, and of Aminta, il re pastore, by Antonio Mazzoni (d. 1785). Tasso's story was the basis for the ballet Sylvia, ou La nymphe de Diane, with music by Léo Delibes, first performed in 1876.… Read More
