Niccolo Sagundino, Ad serenissimum principem, an eyewitness account of the Fall of Constantinople and its seizure by the Ottoman Empire, in Latin, humanist manuscript on paper [Italy (perhaps Naples), mid fifteenth century (most probably soon after 1453)]12 leaves (plus 2 modern paper endleaves at each end), complete, single column of 20 lines in a practised semi-humanist hand, with some long descenders into margin from letters of lowermost lines, watermark in form of a hat (ecclesiastical galero) in form found in wide range of Italian watermarks (see Briquet nos. 3363-3408, recorded from 1411 to the 1550s, the simple form of hat and long conical tassels suggest an earlier date, but the circular bobbles at end of cords can only be found from examples from 1455: Briquet no. 3369, recorded Pisaro), a few pages with line numbers lightly added in nineteenth-century pencil, leaves at each end slightly discoloured, small spots and stains, else excellent condition, 205 by 145mm.; modern binding of marbled pasteboards with white parchment spine, corners and name-plate on front boardA COPY OF ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT WITNESSES TO THE FALL OF CONSTANTINOPLE; IN THE SOLE MANUSCRIPT WITNESS WITH ANY CLAIM TO BE ONE OF THE INITIAL WAVE OF COPIES SENT OUT FROM NAPLES TO INFORM EUROPE OF THIS CLIMATIC EVENTText:Niccolo Sagundino was born in Chalkis, the main urban centre for the Greek island of Eubea/Negroponte, in 1402. The formative moment of his life was his capture by the Turks during their invasion of Venetian controlled Thessalonica. He remained hostage there for thirteen months, but used the time to closely study his captors, and when redeemed probably by the Venetian State, he was put to use by the authorities of Negroponte as a translator and probably also as a diplomat. He served again in this capacity at the Council of Florence, where he drew the attention of Pope Eugenius IV who immediately appointed him apostolic secretary. In 1440 the Venetian State appointed him chancellor of Negroponte, and he was there on 29 May 1453 when the Ottoman forces overran Constantinople. Venice despatched him to the sultan and he remained in Constantinople during the entire summer and autumn of that year, returning only to update the Venetians and from there the Pope and the Neapolitans. His long speech given at the Neapolitan court at the end of January 1454 (here written in error as “M.cccc.Liii.”) is what is contained in this manuscript, and was committed to writing and disseminated on the order of King Alfonso 'the Magnificent’ of Naples due to its crucial importance. In addition to its function as a form of Renaissance news despatch, the text was one of the very first reports on the Ottoman Empire produced in the West and gives a detailed portrait of the young emperor, Mohammed II, as well an assessment of the military strengths and potential weaknesses of his forces. The Venetians continued their anti-Ottoman dialogue with the Neapolitan court through Sagundino, and in 1461 sent him back to the sultan while he was on campaign in Anatolia crushing the last vestiges of Byzantine power there. His last active diplomatic work was to the Pope in 1462 to secure additional funding for Hungary and their new border with the Ottoman Empire. He died in 1464.The text was recently edited by C. Caselli, Ad serenissimum principem et invictissimum regem Alphonsum Nicolai Sagundini oratio, 2012, who lists 31 manuscripts (not including the present one). To those should be added: (i) Brescia, Biblioteca Civica Queriniana, B.VII.34, fols. 27r-40r, and (ii) Innsbruck, Universitätsbibliothek 636, fols. 264r-267v. All of these are in institutional ownership, and only the single copies in the John Rylands Library, the Stiftsbibliothek of Melk, the BnF in Paris, and the three in the ÖNB in Vienna are outside of Italy. None is recorded in the United States. Crucially, all these witnesses include the text as part of compendia, often among numerous other related texts, most probably produced as reference copies from the initial productions of the Neapolitan court. The present manuscript is the only one to survive in a discrete booklet, apparently produced quickly. It may well be the sole surviving witness to that initial Neapolitan campaign of copying and distribution, committed to paper in the court of Naples on the orders of Alfonso ‘the Magnificent’ and before the author himself.
