Battista Guarini’s letters had a great fortune in print between the Nineties of the Sixteenth and the first decade of the Seventeenth century. Then comes a period of oblivion, ending in the Thirties of the Eighteenth century, when the letters were included into the draft edition of all Guarini’s Works, made by the printer Giovanni Alberto Tumermani. Although the three volumes of letters (edited by Apostolo Zeno in cooperation with Lodovico Antonio Muratori) were never published, the contribution of the studies made in preparation for printing is still relevant today. Specifically, Zeno found and transcribed letters, whose originals are lost; moreover, he copied twice the annotations that Giovan Niccolò Panizzari, a Guarini’s friend, had written at the first edition of the printed letters (Venezia, Ciotti, 1593). These annotations provide important information about the transition from letter-document to letter-work and about the author will. In this article I want to reconstruct the authorial intervention in Ciotti’s first edition and provide the Panizzari’s annotations scholar edition.
