ISBN10: 0804703744, ISBN13: 9780804703741, [publisher: Stanford University Press] Hardcover Sixe 225mmX290X60mm. De Arte Venandi cum Avibus was written shortly before the year 1250 by Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor, King of Sicily and Jerusalem, in whose court, with its remarkably cosmopolitan and highly intellectual life, may be found the real beginning of the Italian Renaissance. In spite of its title, it is far more than a dissertation on hunting. There is a lengthy introduction dealing with th anatomy of birds, an intensely description of avian habits, and the excursions of migratory birds. Indeed, this ancient book has long been recognized as the first zoological treatise written in the critical spirit of modern science. The 1943 edition od this single sumptuous volume now in hand is, however, was the first translation into English of the complete text, originally divided into a prologue of six books.The book is in very nice condition EXCEPT for a small shelf stain on the bottom while the jacket has several small tears.
