'W. TITLES OF SUNDRY BOOKS AND PAPERS WHICH TREAT OF
MARCO POLO AND HIS BOOK.
I. SALVIATI, Cavalier LION ARDO. Degli Avvertimenti della Lingua sopra 'l Decamerone. In Venezia, i 584.
Has some brief remarks on Texts of Polo, and on references to him or his story in Villani and Boccaccio.
MARTINI, MARTINO. Novus Atlas Sinensis. Amstelodami, 1655.
The Maps are from Chinese sources, and are surprisingly good. The Descriptions, also from Chinese works but interspersed with information of Martini's own, have, in their completeness, never been superseded. This estimable Jesuit often refers to Polo with affectionate zeal, identifying his localities, and justifying his descriptions. The edition quoted in this book forms a part of Blaeu's Great Atlas (1663). It was also reprinted in Thévenot's Collection.
KIRCHER, ATHANASIUS. China Illustrata. Amstelodami, 1667. He also often refers to Polo, but chiefly in borrowing from Martini.
MAGAILLANS, GABRIEL DE (properly Magalhaens). Nouvelle Descrrplion de la Chine, contenant la description des Particularités les plus considérables de ce Grand Empire. Paris, 1688, 4to.
Contains many excellent elucidations of Polo's work.
CORONELLI, VINCENZO. Allante Veneto. Venezia, 169o.
Has some remarks on Polo, and the identity of Cathay and Cambaluc with China and Peking.

In vol. ii. p. 117, Salvini makes some remarks on the language in which he supposes Polo to have composed his Book.
