Brossura editoriale con ripiegata a busta, velina protettiva (questa con alcune fioriture) e custodia rigida in tela muta (tracce di polvere), in quarto cm 32x23, pp XXII 193 (3) con 6 tavole. Edizione di pregio dell'opera Account of the manners and customs of Italy; with observations on the mistakes of some travellers, with regard to that country (1767), scritta da Baretti in confutazione delle polemiche Letters from Italy di Samuel Sharp e dedicata a Lord Charlemont. L'Account traccia un ritratto non sistematico e spesso indulgente del nostro paese, costellato di consigli ai viaggiatori, commenti su accademie e letterati (Metastasi, Goldoni, Gozzi), osservazioni sui costumi, la politica, l'arte, la religione. L'opera conobbe immediata fortuna in Europa e, prima di questa integrale, una «imperfetta e lacunosa» traduzione italiana nel 1818 (Fubini, DBI 1964). L'edizione è stampata in 200 + XXX esemplari numerati (ns #143) su carta a mano, in barbe, con testo composto e stampato al torchio da Ruggero Olivieri e cinque tavole di Franco Rognoni impresse su carta Giappone; ciascun esemplare è firmato a matita dall'illustratore al colophon. Piccole fioriture sulla velina protettiva (sul dorso), e tracce di polvere sulla custodia muta. Il volume è in ottimo stato.

"Between 1773 and 1776 Baretti became the language tutor to Hetty (Queeney), the daughter of Henry Thrale, brewery proprietor, and his wife, Hester Thrale, to whom he was introduced by Samuel Johnson. During these three years Baretti chose to live on and off at their villa at Streatham, where the Thrales were accustomed to entertaining artists, writers, and distinguished professional people. In 1775 they arranged for Baretti and Johnson to travel with them for two months to France. That same year, Baretti wrote and published a collection of dialogues, Easy Phraseology for the Use of Young Ladies, which had been originally intended for his pupil Hetty." --DNB.

Condition: Molto buono (Very Good). Tre volumi di sette in 8vo (mm 213x134): tomi I, II, e III (mancano i tomi IV-VII). Pp. [4], 332; 438, [2]; 363, [1]. Alcune carte un po' fiorite, lievi aloni marginali. I primi tre tomi contengono "La Frusta letteraria di Aristarco Scannabue" e "Tre lettere sopra un  certo fatto del dottor Biagio Schiavo da Este". Mezza pergamena novecentesca, piatti rivestiti con carta colorata. Filetti e titolo in oro al dorso. Giuseppe Baretti fu tra i principali critici letterari del suo tempo. Spirito irriverente e ribelle, con la sua Frusta letteraria polemizzò contro la stucchevole poesia bucolica, l'erudizione accademica e il bigottismo religioso. Nonostante la sua vena polemica anticonformista, non riuscì tuttavia ad entrare in sintonia con lo spirito proprio dell'Illuminismo, venendo così additato come un «ribelle conservatore».
