Specialist Notes
Elegant edition of this lucky love hunt in octaves, printed for the first time in Milan in 1510. In seven cantos the poet tells of his imaginary hunt after Mirina, a nymph of Diana transformed into a doe, with which he enters the city of Erotopoli to retrieve his dogs which will eventually be returned to him by Adonis. Illustrates the memory of the Fregoso (ca. 1460-1530) given to us by Ariosto in the edition of the Furioso of 1532 (canto XLVI). Brunet II, 1388; Sander I, 2926; Essling 2926.
