L'AMOUR EN FUREUR, OR THE EXCESSES OF ITALIAN JEALOUSY. Histoire Nouvelle & Curieuse. La Haye: Jacques Brunel, 1732. In-12, red half-maroquin, smooth spine decorated, untrimmed (19th-century binding). New edition of this uncommonly anonymous work, which has been reprinted many times and first appeared in 1684. It tells the story of a Florentine named Fabrice, who, out of jealousy, resolves to clothe his Venetian wife, Virginia, in a golden chastity belt. The edition is illustrated with a frontispiece depicting angry love holding a dagger, chains and a padlock. A good copy. Minor rubbing to lower headpiece. Minor foxing.
