In the bio-bibliography compiled by Pietro Martorana, entitled, "Notizie Biographiche e Bibliographiche degli Scrittori del Dialetto Napolitano," Napoli, Presso Chiurazzi Editore, 1874, the author notes the work briefly on page 42, but enlarges upon it in the Appendix, page 427, where he says, " Brigliano Gio. Battista. Un semplice ricordo da taccuino, ci fece scrivere poche parole alla pag 42 citando nudamente Brigliano detto il masturzo, ma nel corso di questo lavoro avendo acquistato il libro citato, diremo, Gli penosi affetti egloga pastorale in Napolitana e Toscana lingua di Gio.

Other than these two entries, no reference to this work can be found in any of the standard bibliographies that I have consulted. The whereabouts of Martorana's copy is unkown (unless, of course, this happens to be the one). Good.
