	Voynich MS - Biographies
		Marci was also very much aware of his isolation in Prague, and the lack of contact with the main scientists of his days.
		Marci's last extant letter to Kircher is the one accompanying the Voynich MS, written in August 1666 (38).
		Marcus Marci mentions in a letter to Kircher that his father in law (Octavio Misseroni) was present at one of Kelly's transmutations.

	The Voynich Manuscript - Crystalinks
		Marci sent the manuscript immediately with the letter to Athanasius Kircher (a Jesuit priest and scholar in Rome) in 1666 who apparently also knew of it and had exchanged letters and transcribed portions with the previous unidentified owner.
		Marci's trip was part of a continuing struggle by the secularist side of the University to maintain their independence from the Jesuits, who ran the rival Clementinum college in Prague.
		However, Marci's secret grudge against the Jesuits is pure conjecture: a faithful Catholic, he himself had studied to become a Jesuit, and shortly before his death in 1667 he was granted honorary membership in their Order.

		Marci's alchemical philosophy helped shape local debates about corpuscular matter theory, the physical nature of light, and theories of generation and decomposition, which were central to the development of early modern Bohemian natural philosophy.
		Marci was an imperial physician and Dean of Medicine in post-Rudolfine Prague, a period in which political circumstances, occasioned by the Thirty Years war, forced the merger of Prague's two university institutions, the Carolinum and the Clementinum.
		Chapter III discusses Marci's use of Kepler's concept of the vis motrix as the model for his seminal agents that directed generation in plants, animals, and humans.

	diary 2
		It is known (from a letter of Johannes Marcus Marci to Athanasius Kircher dated 1666) that the manuscript was bought by Emperor Rudolph II of Bohemia (1552-1612).
		Marci must have known about this manuscript before 1644, as the information concerning the price that the Emperor paid came from Dr. Raphael Missowski (1580-1644) (as mentioned in his letter).
		Marci was hoping that Kircher would be able to translate the manuscript, but apparently Kircher was unable to do so.

	Johannes Bessarion
		This notwithstanding, Bessarion continued to work zealously for the union of the other Oriental schismatic churches, the Jacobites and Ethiopians (1442), the Syrians (1444), the Chaldeans and Maronites (1445).
		At this time, also, to refute the accusations of Marcus of Ephesus, against the council, he wrote the book: "De successu synodi florentinæ".
		After 1464 he gave these treasures to the Republic of Venice with which he had always been in the greatest sympathy.
