Catalogue Note
Censimento 16 lists six editions of this text printed between 1505 and 1521, each of which is known in only a few copies, indicating that it was produced as a textbook for use in the University of Padua, where Paolo Veneto had taught in the early fifteenth century; the humble binding on this particular copy is confirmation of this.
