BIBLIOGRAPHY ÓF' POLO'S BOOK

5~5

  1. FOSCARINI, MARCO. Frammento inedito di, intorno ai Viaggiatori Veneziani; accompanied by Remarks on Bürck's German edition of Marco Polo, by TOMMASO GAR (late Director of the Venice Archives). In Archivio Storico Italiano, Append. torn. iv. p. 89 sega. [See Bibliography, supra 8-8, p. 557.]

  2. ZENO, APOSTOLO, Annotazioni soj5ra la Biblioteca dell' Eloquenza Italiana di Giusto Fonfanini. Venezia, 1753.

See Marsden's Introduction, passim.

Io. TIRAPOSCI-it, GIROLAMO. Storia della Letteratura Italiana. Modena, 1772-1783.

There is a disquisition on Polo, with some judicious remarks (iv. pp. 68-73).

II. TOALDO, GIUSEPPE. Saggi di Studj Veneti nell' Astronomia e nella Marina. Ven. 1782.

This work, which I have not seen, is stated to contain some remarks on Polo's Book. The author had intended to write a Commentary thereon, and had collected books and copies of MSS. with this view, and read an article on the subject before the Academy' of Padua, but did not live to fulfil his intention (d. 1797).

[See Cicogna, II. p. 386 ; vi. p. 855.]

This book, which is a marvel for the quantity of interesting matter which it contains in small space, has much about Polo.

ZURLA, Abate PLACIDO. Life of Polo, in Collezione di Vite e Ritratti d'Illustri Italiani. Padova, 1816.

This book is said to have procured a Cardinal's Hat for the author. It is a

respectable book, and Zurla's exertions in behalf of the credit of his countrymen are greatly to be commended, though the reward seems inappropriate.
