Later edition of this political and social satire by Traiano Boccalini, opposing Spanish rule in Italy and criticizing Italian princes who sought foreign solutions for domestic issues. Anti-Jesuit and anti-Spanish, Boccalini denounced court life and depicted the known world including the Indies and the Americas. Originally circulated as a manuscript around 1605, Boccalini left the Papal States for the free state of Venice, where his work first published in 1612.
