[CORSICA] Memorie Istorico - geografo - politiche del Regno di Corsica. In Genova, 1739. 1 vol. in-8, half-bound in brown leather, smooth spine titled in gold. Entirely handwritten. Wear to binding. Accompanied by an autograph letter from Genoa, dated October 24, 1906, addressed to a Corsican scholar on the subject of the "MS. di Canari" ("Canari manuscript"). In it, the author explicitly refers to the restitution of a copy of the manuscript preserved in the Château de Canari, and discusses several Corsican historical sources and manuscript traditions. This historical-political manuscript on Corsica is probably a later, scholarly copy of an 18th-century text from the Château de Canari, former home of the Cenci family, barons of Canari, Nonza and Ogliastro.
