Edition Notes
Translation of: Sphaera / Joannes de Sacro Bosco. originally published in this translation with Mauro's annotations, Venice, 1537.
Title vignette (diagram, part of the "astronomico instrumento," repeated on p. 208); initials.
Dedicatory letter, "Al illvstrissimo S. Cosmo de Medici dvca di Firenze m. Mavro Fiorentino Servita ... (at end: Della Annuntiata, il primo di gennaio del M.D. XLVII).
At end of Spera theologica et divina (p. [200]): Terminata à honor di Dio Optimo Maximo in Firenze nella Annuntiata, per il medesimo autore. Ann. M.D. XLVII. Mense iannuario ultimo nocte sequenti.
"Sonetto in laude del r. m. Mauro Fonasco, di m. Pietro Orsilago da Pisa": p. 219.
Moreni (Annali della tipogr. fiorentina di Lorenzo Torrentino, 2. ed. Firenze, 1819) states that the "Annotationi" appeared first in the "Sphera volgare novamente tradotta con molte notande additioni di geometria, cosmographia [etc.] avtore m. Mavro Fiorentino Phonasco et Philopanareto" (title quoted from Riccardi); pub. twice in the same year (1537) at Venice by Zanetti and later by Stefano di Sabbio. The latter work contains, however, a paraphrastic translation of the Sphaera with notes, whereas the present work is a continuous commentary upon the Sphaera followed by a literal translation of the same, "Nvova et fedele (ad verbvm) tradvttione della Spera." The edition of 1547 described in the Catalogo del libri della Farsettiana, p. 218, is, according to Moreni, in all probability identical with the present edition.
