The catalogue of the manuscripts collected by Farsetti, the Venetian patrician, poet and book collector, who was also a friend of Morelli. This catalogue, Morelli's first published work, describes 78 Latin and 165 Italian manuscripts. In 1780 he published a second catalogue of the manuscripts that Farsetti had acquired during the intervening years.
