Italian translation of: Historiae adversum paganos libri VII.

Printer from colophon which is within a double ruled border. It may represent the imprint of the father/son printing firm of Paganino and Alessandro Paganini with the supplied imprint form reading: P[aganinus et] Alex[ander] Pag[anini] benacenses f[ecerunt] Bena[co] V[i]V[e] as suggested by Lechi in his "Della tipofrafir bresciana nel secolo decimoquinto" but which Norton disputes with the possibility that the ".... initial P is obscure; it might refer to a son of Alexander who had scceeded to his prees, or it might indicate that Alexander was a priest"---Norton, F.J. Italian printers 1501-1520, p. 116-117.

Imprint date undetermined with sources suggesting various possibilities: date range of printing 1527-1533 based on EDIT 16, which in turn is based on A. Nuovo's "Alessandro Paganino (1509-1538)". Isaac suggests date of imprint ranging 1520? cf. Isaac #13935. According to Norton this is one of several with the same colophon printed at Toscolano by Alessandro Paganini between 1519 and 1538.
