Florence. Manuscript Memoranda by Manzini, a Florentine merchant, of family and public matters and events between 1478 and 1525, autograph manuscript in brown ink on laid paper, bears watermark of a five-pointed star within a circle (similar to Briquet 6071), thus suggesting a paper used at Florence around 1478, 29 leaves, numbered to upper right corner 9, 14, 18, 22, 26-31, 34 up to 52, but with some apparent breaks in the numeration, additional manuscript note on a slip of similar laid paper loosely inserted, dampstained to inner margins throughout, 17 further blank leaves of laid paper at end (unused), disbound, with remains of stitching still present, folio (27.5 x 20.5 cm), loosely contained in 20th century plain pale blue wrapper, and red cloth portfolio, with 2 pages of 20th century typewritten notes on the contents of the manuscript (apparently by a Miss Rosemary Hughes), a copy of the printed catalogue of manuscripts and books by Maggs Bros. Ltd., London (Catalogue 884, Ancient Medieval and Modern No. 6, May 1962), in which this manuscript is described as item 68, with a price of £35, also a typewritten letter from H. Clifford Maggs of Maggs Bros. Ltd. to Professor C.H. Clough, dated 30th July 1962, in which the bookseller confirms that he has traced the Manzini Ricordi in the strong room, and has now sent it to Professor Clough by post (Qty: 1)NOTESProvenance: Professor Cecil H. Clough (1930-2017), Reader in Medieval History, University of Liverpool. The present manuscript is a series of ricordi, or memoranda on personal and public matters between the years 1478 and 1525, by a Florentine merchant whose surname is Manzini. Until 23rd July 1462, he lived in San Gemignano (folio 9 recto), and appears to have been a shopkeeper or merchant as on the verso of the same leaf he states that in 1463 he rented half a bottega (a shop), with a little warehouse from Jacopo di Piero Piccino and started business from there. The bottega is referred to once more in a reference to his will on folio 43 verso. Manzini may have been connected with the cloth trade, since he mentions on folio 29 verso that he held the son of a flax worker in baptism. There are four references of historical significance: On folio 29 recto the writer gives a short account of a procession on the 14th May 1487 of the Madonna Santa Maria of Impruneta. On folio 39 verso Manzini describes the expulsion of Piero de Medici on 9th November 1494, when the citizens went armed to the palace and shouted "Popolo e liberta", and how the 'primi fanciugli' (the foremost young men) were amongst the insurgents. The writer had been present at four uprisings since 1458, but this occasion was the most united and extraordinary affair surely sent from heaven ("la piu unita e maravigliosa cosa proprio dato da cieli...'). On folio 42 recto the author refers to the attack of Savonarola's enemies of San Marco, on the evening of April 8th, 1498, and the death of the head of the republic Gonfaloniere Francesco Valori. Savonarola is referred to as Fra Girolamo. Folio 42 recto refers to the departure of Piero de Medici and the Cardinal de Medici his brother after lunch on Sunday ('Dopo mangiare fu in dominicha'), on 9th November [1498]?

Hugo's account of the Siege of Breda (1624-5) was first printed in 1626, and dedicated to the Infanta Isabella, daughter of King Philip II of Spain, widow of Archduke Albert of Austria, and sovereign of the Hapsburg Netherlands. Hugo, a Jesuit, was chaplain to the head of the Infanta Isabella's army, General Ambrogio Spinola, so well placed to write an account of this important victory. He was present at all of Spinola’s campaigns but died in 1629 in the plague that swept through the Spanish army at Rheinberg.
