		Duke Albert had destined his third son, Ernest, for the clerical vocation; in 1565 he became a canon at Salzburg, and soon afterward at Cologne, Treves, and Würzburg as well; in the autumn of 1565 he likewise became bishop of Freising.
		Albert's wishes no doubt centered upon the neighboring archdiocese of Salzburg; but in 1569, when Elector Salentin of Cologne incurred difficulties with the curia for non-recognition of the Council of Trent and was contemplating resignation, Ernest was proposed by his father, who had the support of the Spanish government at Brussels, as Salentin's successor.
		Duke Ernest, who for a time, in 1572, had well-nigh thwarted all his father's plans by a suddenly outcropping disinclination to ward the spiritual vocation, was sent to Rome in the spring of 1574, for a sojourn of nearly two years, by way of reward for submitting to his father's will.

		Her discussion of the interplay of the technologies of printing and the evolving notion of memory, however, feels like it could be taken further, particularly given the book's subtitle.
		Bolzoni points as well towards outward manifestations -- the portraits that accompanied Giorgio Vasari's biographies, the collections of Albert V, Duke of Bavaria -- that were adjunct to the interior process of remembrance.
		The art of memory and the attendant activities it inspired, she argues, ultimately must not be dismissed as game-play or chicanery.
