ONGARO, Antonio (c.1559-1599). Alceo, fauola pescatoria. Venice: Francesco Ziletti. 8° (151mm. x 100mm). Small woodcut device on title, with the final blank. (Lower forecorner of title with a small repair with no damage to text, title a little stained). 19th-century decorated boards (joints a little rubbed). FIRST EDITION of Ongaro's Alceo, one of the more celebrated poems of the latter part of the 16th century, and reprinted upwards of twenty times between this first edition and the early 19th century. In essence it is a pastoral with fishermen substituted for shepherds and its debt to Tasso's Aminta is evident, so much so that it used to be referred as 'l'Aminta bagnata'. Gamba 1541 (note); Fontanini/Zeno I, 447.
