Description
Lucca: Dalla tipografia Bertini, 1826. Original edition. Fine. Octavo (22 cm), xiv, [1 blank] pages. Printed on wove paper with Bodoni-style type. In stiff plain paste-paper boards. Remarkable fresh and fine. A collection of epithalamia for the wedding of Francesca Cosi del Vollia to the noted engraver Antonio Viviani in the city of Lucca. The collection opens with a sonnet by Lucca's most famous poet, Teresa Bandettini, who had settled in her home town after years on the road. Bandettini had achieved something like rock-star status for her performances of improvised poetry and dance in the salons and theaters of the peninsula. Inducted into the Academmia degli Arcadi, she signs her sonnet here with her Arcadian name, Amarilli Etrusca. See my recent article on Bandettini and other improvisational poets on my web site or on the website of the Fellowship of American Bibliophilic Societies.

Description
New York: Park Benjamin, Editor, 1841. Huge elephant folio sheet, folded to [4] pages, each page printed in eight columns. Engraved masthead. Whittier's poem is printed in about one-and-a-half columns. Several significant and unsightly blotches on each page; one of them touches a small portion of the Whittier poem but does not affect legibility. Some blank margin chips. Good. "Not far from the Whittier home in Amesbury, MA, was the Macy House, about which Whittier wrote one of his first poems on Quaker persecution. The poem was published in a gift book: The North Star: The Poetry of Freedom, by her friends. 'The Exiles' is about Thomas Macy, who was driven from Amesbury for sheltering a Quaker" [online article, "Whittier as Quaker" by Susan Herman, accessed at North Shore Community College online portal].
