	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Poggio Bracciolini
		An Italian humanist and historian; born at Terranuova, near Arezzo, in 1380; died at Florence, 10 Oct., 1459.
		In 1450 an outbreak of the pest sent Nicholas V to Fabriano and Poggio to his birthplace where he completed the compilation of the "Facetiæ".
		In all these disputes Poggio showed the same fecundity of low insults and calumnies as his opponents.

	Italian humanist manuscripts: the works of Poggio Bracciolini — Jyväskylän yliopisto - University of Jyväskylä
		Poggio's hand in the manuscripts of the 1430s., 1440s and 1450s: contrary to a view proposed by some scholars, Poggio was perfectly able to write by hand in these decades despite his failing eye-sight.
		A critical edition of this work, left incompleted at the death of the author and edited as well as translated in to Italian by his son Jacopo di Poggio Bracciolini, was commissioned by and will appear in the Italian Edizione Nazionale of humanist historiography in 2006.
		the patrons of Jacopo di Poggio were consistently anti-Medicean, and his edition and translation of the text must be considered in the context of the subversive activities leading to the Pazzi conspiracy of 1478; 2.

		Ett vältaligt prov på humanisternas lidelsefulla förhållande till det skrivna ordet ges i det brev som den florentinske humanisten Poggio Bracciolini (1380-1459), en annan stor boksamlare och framstående kopist, skickade till vännen Guarino Guarini år 1416.
		Poggio hade under sin vistelse vid konciliet i Konstanz gjort en utflykt till schweiziska St Gallen, där han genomletat klosterbiblioteket och funnit de saknade delarna av den antike romerske retorikteoretikern Quintillianus Institutio Oratoria.
		Poggio och Niccoli är också betydelsefulla figurer i den västerländska skriftens och typsnittets historia.

		Poggio Bracciolini, papal secretary and literary explorer, rediscovered texts of Quintilian, Asconius, Valerius Flaccus, Lucretius, Silius Italicus, Ammianus Marcellinus and ten hitherto unknown orations of Cicero.
		This book, containing eight of Cicero's recovered orations, was copied by Poggio while book-hunting in Cologne and Langres during the summer of 1417.
		49 verso may be translated, "This oration, formerly lost owing to the fault of the times, Poggio restored to the Latin-speaking world and brought it back to Italy, having found it hidden in Gaul, in the woods of Langres, and having written it in memory of Tully [Cicero] and for the use of the learned."

	Frontinus Translation Introduction
		The copyist, as it happens, was no ordinary scribe: he was Peter the Deacon, an enigmatic but remarkable monk whose own erratic career left an indelible impression on the history of that venerable monastery.
		Peter's copy was discovered three centuries later by Poggio Bracciolini, an indefatigable student of the reawakening interest in classical antiquity.
		Readers, beginning with Poggio himself, have been faced with rather serious editorial problems--merely to achieve a modest coherence of grammar and sense.
