1817. Hard & Soft cover. Very Good. Three early classic works on the Italian merchant Amerigo Vespucci, explorer, and navigator from the Republic of Florence who allegedly undertook several voyages to the "New World". In recognition of his explorations, the cartographer Martin Waldweemüller latinized his name as America in Cosmographiae Introductio (1507).
• Girolamo Bartolommei già Smeducci (1584-1662). L'America poema eroico di Girolamo Bartolomei già Smeducci Al cristianissimo Luigi XIV. re di Francia e di Navarra. Roma: Nella stamperia di Lodouico Grignani, 1650. [20], 564, [12] pp. 4to, 300 × 215 mm. ² a-b A-4A 4B² 4C 4D². Allegorical engraving by Johann Friedric Greuter depicting Vespucci reaching the Americas. Lacking the engraved portrait frontispiece of the author but otherwise complete. Vellum binding, some browning but very nicely restored, handwritten title on the spine. Dedicated to Louis XIV, King of France and Navarre. First and only edition of this epic poem in forty cantos, printed in two columns, each canto consisting of a hundred stanzas, celebrating Vespucci and his exploits, comparing him to Ulysses in Homer's Odyssey. Born in Florence circa 1584, Girolamo
Bartolommei già Smeducci graduated in law, but then devoted himself assiduously to literature. He was part of the Accademia della Crusca with the name of Imbucato of the Accademia Fiorentina. He was the author of many theatrical compositions and musical dramas. References: JCB Lib. cat. (Bibliotheca Americana), pre-1675, 2:393; Sabin, 3797; Palau y Dulcet (2nd ed.), 25119. A scarce publication in excellent condition.
