Who was the foreigner who gave to the world the very interesting book respecting Sanuto under the following title? Ragguagli sulla Vita e sulle Opere di Marin Sanuto, &c. Intitolati dall' amicizia di uno Straniere al nobile Jacopo Vicenzo Foscarini. Opera divise in trè perti, Venezia, 1837-8. in 8vo.
He was one of the wittiest and most versatile of authors, and would have risen to positions of greater dignity, if only his pen had been a little less active and his satire less severe. He wrote a book entitled Ragguagli di Parnasso , which was most successful.
It relates to an epoch among the most interesting of Modern History, and the extracts given in the Ragguagli only make us wish for more. From this Diary it appears that the Valori were among the most distinguished citizens of a state which could boast that its merchants were princes.
