Gli Annali di Pietro Gradenigo

Abstract
The Annals here are only a small part of the vast work related to the Venetian history and culture left by manuscript by the educated Pietro Gradenigo, noble descendant of one of the founding families of Venice. Unfortunately, only the manuscript, until now unpublished, of the Anniversary I, has been received by us at the Marciana Library in Venice. Here is the faithful transcript of the manuscript, which records events occurring over the period between January 1, 1773 and March 31, 1774 "more Venetian", and represents an important testimony of life in the Serenissima of the 1700s. The text is written in Italian, the language used in Venice by people who intended to write about cultural or scientific issues, in which sometimes dialectical terms and quotations are inserted in Latin; annotations to the side of the text are of the same Gradenigo, in which he refers to his other manuscripts or to other points of the same Annals I for an in-depth study of the subject he dealt with.
