Re: VMs: Cat-and-mouse (continued)...

[jean-yves artero <jyartero@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody,

 

I am certainly not trying to convince anybody that this topic is essential, but I simply think that WMV s character on the contrary is very very important in this story.

 

For instance I read somewhere he was from POL/LIT nobility. Why did he choose the above to present himself as a bookdealer, at some stage of course?

BTW is it possible to have an idea of his family's supposed coat of arms? To be totally sincere, I tried, and did not succeed ( yet ;-) ).

 

I know that this is mere speculation or about so; now back to a fact, gentlemen - and gentle ladies:

 

Here is an excerpt of VMW s third list of books in 1901( FWIW: price half a crown - in 1901 ):

 

page 318, reference 1227:

 

"L'Amoroso Convivio di Dante, Impresso in Venegia per Marchio Sessa nell' anno MDXXXI. The Sessa mark (cat and mouse) appears twice: in border of title and in an other form on last leaf...".

 

Nick I am really ( I have to emphasize this I imagine ;-) ) really really sorry about this new chapter.
