[NATALI Giulio Matteo] Disinganno intorno alla guerra di Corsica. In Colonia, e in Trevigi, 1736. 1 vol. small in-8, 110 pp. in contemporary hardback. The last blank leaf is glued to the 3rd cover. Wear and tear. This second edition appeared in the same year as the original (printed in Rome, but addressed to Cologne), still under the pseudonym of Curzio Tulliano. This work puts the Genoese government on trial, and seeks to re-establish the Corsican version of events on the island, vis-à-vis the European courts, particularly the French. Our copy is embellished with an annotation in Italian, translated as follows: "This book is attributed to Abbé Natali, Corsican, and for this reason wounded by a sicario with a stylet he had left planted (in his body) and bearing the arms of Genoa. He was made coadjutor bishop and given two meager benefices in the Genoa region". Natali is indeed the author of the Disinganno. Genoa did try to have him assassinated. But the book's owner was mistaken: he was made bishop of Tivoli, a diocese near Rome.
