Description		    Important and rich Italian language work on synonyms and antonyms by Carlo Costanzo, rabbi in Bologna, Italy. This edition has added material from Alessandro Maria Bandiera. There is an introduction from Constanzo, followed by a preface. The text of Sinonimi ed aggiunti italiani is in two columns, initial words in capitals, the text in a smaller font and parts of speed and foreign words in Italics. A thorough work, Sinonimi ed aggiunti italiani, has been frequently reprinted. Entries vary considerably in length. An example of a brief entry is ASSIOMA (axiom). Detta generale comunemente avuto per vero. L. axioma. S. massima. Proposizione generalissima, e vera, verita da tutti conceduta, ammessa. Primo principio. Senteuza. Dogma.aforismo.enumciato sost. Agg. Cetto, trito, indubitabilmente vero, notissimo. Metafisciico. Teologico. . . .

R. Carlo Costanzo (1678-1746) is little known, except that he was a man of letters. His religious constancy appears questionable, particularly due to the title Padre preceding rabbi.
