Franceschi [de’ Franceschi].
Italian family of printers. The best known is Francesco Franceschi (d in or before 1599). He signed his volumes ‘Francesco dei Franceschi Senese’, which implies that he came from Siena. Between 1562 and 1599 he printed a great many volumes at Venice, including the works of Zarlino. His only other musical titles were also theoretical - the writings of Maurolyco and of Aurelio Paolini. His music printing is as elegant as any of the period, and he used his own fount of type. Giovanni Antonio de’ Franceschi was probably his relative (there were several other contemporary printers with this name, but they did not print music); he worked at Palermo from 1592 to 1599, and produced four titles: a reprint of Arcadelt’s works, the first volume of Antonio Il Verso and two volumes of music by Raval. He printed another edition of Zarlino’s works in Venice with Giacomo Franceschi in 1602. Another Franceschi printed a single musical treatise at Verona in 1615.

Podemos por lo tanto afirmar que la verdad no es necesariamente lo contrario de la ficción, y que cuando optamos por la práctica de la ficción no lo hacemos con el propósito turbio de tergiversar la verdad.
