Herberstein on Russia (1571) with Alberti on Italy (1567).In a Handsome Elaborately Tooled Binding.With the First Modern Map of Russia.This volume includes two important early European works, both in Latin editions: Alberti's Italy (1567) and Herberstein's Russia (1571).Herberstein's account of Moscow, first published in 1549, stands as one of the most important works concerning Russia and its ethnography written from first-hand knowledge of the country by von Herberstein, who resided there in his role as Austrian ambassador. The work includes a fine map of "Moscovia", and a bird's-eye city view of the city.Herberstein's book includes 3 maps, the first modern plan of Moscow and two maps of Muscovy, one topographical and one including physical features. In his work on the early cartography of Russia, Leo Bagrow notes:Herberstein was twice at Moscow-in 1517 and 1526. Herberstein's knowledge of a Slavonic language facilitated his intercourse with local inhabitants on his travels in Russia, and his academic education gave him a desire for knowledge of a country so little known to Western Europe. He missed no opportunity to question the people he met, not only on the customs and government of the country, but also on its geography, and particularly that of the border regions. He verified the information he collected by cross-questioning different persons on the same subject, and he also tried to obtain various written documents and records of itineraries. He attempted to procure maps too, but as these, besides being very scarce, were kept strictly secret by the authorities, he tried to persuade those whose knowledge he could trust to prepare maps for him. According to Lyatsky, who however made this statement after having left Russia, he had asked him to compile a map but met with a refusal.Herberstein does not tell us whether he succeeded in obtaining cartographic materials from any other person. But he certainly obtained plenty of oral information and some graphic material too. Thus we know that Grigoryi Istome and Vlasiy and Dmitriy Gerasimov, separately, described to him the navigation from the mouth of the North - Dvina, round Scandinavia, to Denmark. Somebody else gave him a travelling guide from the Dvina . Book.…

Leather. Condition: Very Good. Two very scarce 16th century volumes bound as one in contemporary calf, uniting the first Latin edition of Alberti"s celebrated description of Italy with Irenicus"s influential humanist survey of Germany. In a contemporary panelled calf with red morocco label to spine. A fascinating volume, bringing together two 16th century humanist geographical and historical surveys of Italy and Germany. Alberti"s influential chorography of Italy is bound with Irenicus"s wide-ranging description of Germany. Compromising: 1567 Descriptio Totius Italiae by Leandro Alberti. First published in Bologna in 1550, in Italian, by Anselmo Giaccarelli, this is the first Latin edition. Leandro Alberti (1479-1552) was a Dominican friar, historian, humanist, and geographer from Bologna. A close friend of most of the contemporary literati, frequently mentioned in the letters of the poet Giovanni Antonio Flaminio. 1570Totius Germaniae Descriptio by Franciscus Irenicus. First published in 1518 as Germaniae exegeseos volumina duodecim, this is a later edition. Franciscus Irenicus (c.1495-1553) was a German humanist historian and theologian associated with the intellectual culture of the Reformation era.

[Venezia] In Vinegia, Giovan Maria Bonelli, 1553, Terza edizione. Buon esemplare; parzialmente distaccata la cerniera anteriore. Terza edizione dell'opera, dopo la prima bolognese del 1550 e la seconda veneziana del 1551 (Pietro e Giovanni Maria Nicolini da Sabbio): ristampa «con somma diligenza corretta», che conferma il successo editoriale immediato di quella che resta una delle più importanti e influenti descrizioni corografiche dell'Italia nel pieno Cinquecento. Ampia "geografia" storico-antiquaria e civile della penisola: oltre al sito e alla ripartizione dei paesi, registra origini e assetti di città e castelli, doppia nominazione antica/moderna, costumi e "condizioni" dei popoli; include inoltre notizie su uomini illustri, e un inventario di elementi naturali e risorse (monti, laghi, fiumi, fontane, bagni, miniere) e delle "opere meravigliose" della natura. Si segnala la dedica ai sovrani francesi Enrico II e Caterina de' Medici, che inquadra il testo dentro una precisa diplomazia culturale dell'epoca.
