Abstract

Based on the first three books of "Quattro libri di dubbi" by Ortensio Landi, probably through the French translation "Questions diverses" (Lyon, 1558). Wrongly attributed to Alain Chartier. Originally published in English in 1566 as: Delectable demaundes, and pleasaunt questions, with their severall aunswers, in matters of love, naturall causes, with morall and politique devises. Translated by William Painter. STC's attribution of translation of "T.S.", who signs the new foreword, is in error. Fawcet's name from STC. With an additional title page, engraved, with imprint "London printed for D: Frere. 1640", signed: TR fer:, i.e. Thomas Rawlins. The first leaf is blank. Copy at 2082 lacks blank leaf. Reproduction of original in the Folger Shakespeare Library.
