1656 Privileged Living in PALERMO Sicily Italy Consilia Siculorum Corsetto RARE

 

Ottavio Corsetto was a wealthy 16^th-century Italian lawyer from a noble family in Palermo. While he studied outside of Sicily, he lived most of his life in Palermo studying law and writing works. He was quite accustomed to the culture and living styles in Palermo during 16^th-century, so much so that he was able to write multiple works on life in Palermo. Perhaps his greatest was ‘Consilia Diversorum Siculorum’ – a dissertation on the privileges and high-class living in Palermo. This work, along with a few other dissertations and memoirs, was not published during Corsetto’s lifetime. It wasn’t until the early 17^th-century that this book was finally published.

 

This 1656 Latin edition was collected and edited by Francesco Baronio, who published it in Palermo.
