BANDELLO, Matteo (1485-1561). Continuation des Histoires tragiques, extraites de l’italien de Bandel, mises en langue Françoise, par François de Belleforest Commingeois. Paris: Benoist Prévost, 1559.
8° (175 x 110mm). Woodcut headpieces and initials. (u5-x1 with worm trace at upper margin.) French 18th-century green morocco gilt, triple fillet on sides, spine, gilt with raised bands, marbled and gilt edges (light rubbing at extremities and joints). Provenance: L.-J. Gaignat (d. 1768; his sale 1769; inscription at front ‘Exemplaire Gaignat no 3/32’, further inscription in the same hand at rear) – Pierre Louÿs (loosely inserted bibliographical notes; his 1930 sale, lot 610).
FIRST COLLECTED EDITION OF THE FRENCH TRANSLATION BY FRANÇOIS DE BELLEFOREST.
In 1559 Pierre Boaistuau published a collection of six stories written by his fellow Italian Matteo Bandello, freely translated into French under the title Histoires tragiques. This marks the beginning of a new literary genre which culminated with the work of Boaistuau’s collaborator François de Belleforest. Following on from Boaistuau's translation, Belleforest published the Continuation des histoires tragiques in the same year, adding another 12 stories. This edition is dedicated to Charles-Maximilien, duc d’Orléans, who was just nine years old. RARE. No copy in the ABPC or RBH.
