500 $aPrepared under the direction of Francesco Tassi; the preface is that by Tanzini of the 1782 and 1796 Florence editions (updated and modernized). See Bertelli & Innocenti, p. cxlv-cxlvi; G. Procacci, Studi sulla fortuna del Machiavelli, p. 401 n.
500 $aFound in two states: (1) 12mo, in 12s (with a few portions in 8vo), signed throughout with arabic numerals; (2) 8vo, in 8s, signed with lower-case letters (except for the first part of v. 1). These appear to result from printing the 12mo first, on sheets ca. 62 x 50 cm., after which the type pages were reimposed for 8vo on smaller sheets, probably with new headlines. Side-notes included in the 8vo text of the Istorie (v. 1-2) are lacking in the 12mo, which does have side-notes in the Prefazione. Vols. 1-2 of the 12mo include 3 of the 4 cancellations found in the 8vo; only the 8vo has cancels in vols. 3 and 8, the earlier settings being found in the 12mo.
500 $aBertelli & Innocenti include two entries (XIX.40, 41) in addition to no. 38 for this edition, with variant imprints "Firenze, Cardinali" and "Firenze, Piatti"; but according to their introd. (p. cxlvi, n.1) these represent (unexamined) "varianti" (which seems unlikely) or "attribuzioni". This has no apparent relation to the existence of two states, which are not noted in any of the sources consulted.
