Description

[SIRITUS]. Siculae Sanctiones. Palermo: Pietro Bentivenga, 1750-1758. First edition, never passed in auction (RBH), of the widest collection in print of the legislation of the Kingdom of Sicily, edited by the jurisconsult Nicola Gervasi. The work brings together in systematic order the main sanctions, constitutions, prammatics and normative provisions emanating from the Sicilian sovereigns, many of which until then scattered in manuscripts or publications difficult to find. Enriched by a broad analytical index, it was an indispensable means of consultation for judges, lawyers and officials of the Kingdom, contributing to the accommodation and dissemination of Sicilian law of the modern age. 7 volumes, Folio (290 x 195mm). Calcographic portrait in anti-porta to the first volume, frontispieces with typographical vignette, initials, heads and xylographic finishes (some blooming and browning). Coeval bonding in full parchment with manuscript title to the back. Origin: "Campione" signature of possession coeva to the frontispiece of the first volume. (7)
