- Abstract:
- Manuscript fragments on paper of 1) Final page of a violent invective against a pope (Paul II, 1464-1471, or more probably Alexander VI, 1492-1503) by a woman (repeatedly referring to herself as "ipsa") who had been badly treated by him; it is addressed to another woman. Here attributed to the humanist Filippo Buonaccorsi ("Callimachus"), born 1437 in San Gemignano, d. 1496, a member of the Accademia Romana, who was among the accused of a conjuration against the life of Pope Paul II and had to flee Italy. 2) Francesco Pietrasanta from Milan, De opibus Christianae religionis, a treatise against the wealth of the clergy, addressed to the theologian Filippo Maineri. 3) Two fragments of a history of Florence.
