Goldoni (Carlo). The Comedies of Doctor Carlo Goldoni, Venetian lawyer, among the Arcadi Polisseno Fegejo. Second Florence edition, corrected, revised and enlarged by the author. Naples, at Alessio Pellecchia, at the expense of Giacomo-Antonio Venaccia, circa 1754-1761. 20 volumes in 20 octavo volumes, preserved under their old, waiting covers. Complete set of 80 pieces, i.e., four comedies per volume, each with a particular title and its own pagination. Important Neapolitan edition published during Carlo Goldoni's lifetime (1707-1793), based on the Florentine second edition Paperini, corrected, revised and augmented by the author. It bears witness to the rapid diffusion, throughout Italy, of Goldoni's reformist theater, which progressively replaced the canvases and conventional characters of the commedia dell’arte with a genuine comedy of character and manners. Rare complete collection of the twenty volumes in their publication condition. The waiting covers, fragile and often replaced by later bindings, confer this copy a particular bibliophilic interest. The whole, homogeneous and decorative, presents a pleasant, typically Italian 18th-century appearance. Some wear, soiling and minor signs of use on the covers and spines. Good and appealing copy in its antique state.
