Beschreibung

Dell Istoria dell Europa, 2 vols., Torino, anno 1869. 12°, 14x9 cm., 280 pp, 336 pp., original binding, only little brownish. Pier Francesco Giambullari Biography ( 1495 1555 ) was a staunch if somewhat eccentric supporter of the primacy of Florentine culture and language. A member of the Accademia Fiorentina, he studied Dante and wrote a treatise on the dimensions of Inferno, which was printed in 1544 with an alphabet designed to teach Florentine pronunciation, and justified in the Osservazioni ( 1544 ) of Neri Dortelata , probably a pseudonym of Giambullari himself. In the dialogueIl Gello ( 1546 ), Giambullari claimed that Florentine was not corrupted Latin but descended from Aramaic via Etruscan. His grammar, the first by a Tuscan since Leon Battista Alberti's , printed as De la lingua che si parla e si scrive in Firenze ( 1552 ), asserted the importance of contemporary educated Florentine but failed to counter the dominance of Pietro Bembo and other Northern Italians. He also wrote a Historia dell'Europa ( 1566 ) covering the period 800 947 . Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 6104
