Abstract
- The article offers information on the additional evidence about the books of Baldassarre Castiglione, a Renaissance author in Italy. The author states that there are three more documents that appeared concerning Castiglione's acquisitions of books. These papers are to be found in Cassetta 6 of the Archivio Castiglioni, in the Archivio di Stato at Mantua. He adds that the documents consist of two letters together with a list of payments and expenditures, which a Mantuan merchant Benedetto Adelardo Da Porto addressed to Castiglione in 1523. Furthermore, the author says that the first of these papers is drafted on September 12, 1523 and the others are written around two months later.
