The Itinerario, overo nuova descrittione de' viaggi principali d'Italia is a famous 17th-century travel guide, originally written in Latin by Francesco Scoto (Franz Schott) and subsequently translated into Italian, expanded and published in various editions between 1629 and 1670 (e.g., at Francesco Bolzetta or Gio. Pietro Brigonci). The book provides a detailed description of travels in Italy, enriched with city plans, bird's-eye views and maps, describing the most notable sights to see. With the name Mattio Cadorin (also known as Matteo Cadorin or with the pseudonym Bolzetta) there is mainly reference to an important editor, printer and bookseller in 17th-century Italy. Franz Schott (1548-1622) Italianized (Francesco Scoto) Franz Schott, in Latin Franciscus Schottus, Italianized Francesco Scoto (Antwerp, 1548 – 1622), was a Flemish jurist and traveler. Brother of Andreas Schott, he was the author of a guide for pilgrims bound for Italy for the Jubilee of 1600: the Itinerarium nobiliorum Italiae regionum, urbium, oppidorum, et locorum. The work was enormously successful and was translated into Italian, English, French and reprinted until the eighteenth century. Little is known about the life of the jurist Franz Schott, except that he came from Antwerp and studied law. As mentioned, in 1600 Schott published the first edition of the Latin work under the title Itinerarii Italiae at Jeans Moretus of Antwerp, with the aim of providing readers, most of whom were pilgrims going to Italy and especially to Rome for the Holy Year, with a practical guide to move around easily. In 1601, by the work of the two editors from Padua, Francesco Bolzetta and Pietro Bertelli, the second Latin edition of the Itinerario d’Italia by Franz Schott was published in Italy, in Vicenza; the work was enriched with maps of some Italian cities and the text, by the editors’ wish, was expanded through the intervention of Geronimo Capugnano, a Dominican friar from Bologna. A further Latin edition was published by Pietro Bertelli in 1610 in Vicenza. In 1620 the same author Franz Schott, urged by the immediate success his Itinerario had achieved, attempted publication of another Latin edition of the same, extending it to Germany. In 1625, after Schott’s death, his brother Andreas supervised a new Latin edition of the Itinerario, which was followed by the edition published in Amsterdam in 1655 by the great geographical publisher Jodocus Jansson. This latter edition, erroneously attributed to Andreas Schott, included eighteen city maps of Italian cities, largely derived from Joannes Jansson’s atlas, Illustrium Italiane urbium tabulae and published in 1657, whose plans had, however, already appeared in 1626 in the Nova et accurata Italiane descriptio. Particularly for the Italian editions, the first Italian edition of Schott’s Itinerario d’Italia was published in Venice in 1610 by the editor Francesco Bolzetta. It was based on the 1601 Latin text but the title erroneously credited the work to Andreas Schott. From this first Italian edition all subsequent Italian editions descended. Through Francesco Bolzetta appeared the Vicentine editions of 1615, 1622 and 1638 and the Padovan editions of 1629, 1642 and 1649. In all these Italian editions the error of attributing the work to Andreas Schott, instead of his brother Franz, was kept. In Rome the Itinerario of Schott was published for the first time in 1650 by the editor Filippo De Rossi, based on the 1649 text. From this edition the attribution of the guide to its rightful author, Franz Schott, was restored. University of Genoa
