Preface by M. Caraccioli: v. I, p. [47]-57.
The genuineness of the collection has been questioned by several authorities (Lowndes, Barbier, Vacant de Mangenot, etc.) the authorship being attributed to L.A. de Caraccioli. That it is in substance a genuine collection, though some of the letters are spurious, is affirmed by Alfred von Raimont in his "Ganganelli ... seine und seine zeit. 1847." Cf. also Encyc. Brit. 11th ed.
Engraved medallion portrait of the Pope on t.p. of v. 1; engraved vignette with papal arms on t.p. of v. 2. Explanation of the vignette on p. [2], first group.
Pagination, v. 1: [4], 314; v. 2: [4], 299, [1] p. (last p. blank).
