Appendices
The appendices present a few of the more interesting of Strada’s letters and some other
unpublished documents.
– In the transcriptions the orthography has been respected, but abbreviations are tac-
itly solved, unless problematical.
– Capitalization and punctuation are updated, and used to make the text intelligible;
this occasionally involves the breaking up of very long sentences into smaller units.
– Interpolations within brackets in mss. indicated in transcription with round brack-
ets ()
– Interpolations added in the margin or elsewhere are tacitly inserted in the appro-
priate spot; when problematical or when the afterthought can be important in the
interpretation: within square brackets and indication (e.g.: in margin: […])
– Lacunous letters, words and/or passages (f.i. in case of damaged edges etc.) restored
within square brackets []; when problematical marked with ?; when impossible to
restore indicated […].
– Editor’s suggestions for missing, unreadable or unintelligible words or lines within
square brackets []
– Editorial ommissions indicated <…>.

le medaglie che la Maestà Vostra me a comisso, onde vi sonno di molti errori, tanto
nelle figure, quanto nella scrittura, non di piccola importanza; et a bocca li mostraro
a la Maestà Vostra; et quando la mi cometesse a me il carico pensarei al’uno et al’altro
poterli coreggere; et per niun modo la Maestà Vostra non lassi più avanti procedere, ne
nelle figure, ne anche nella scrittura, insino a tanto che la Maestà Vostra non intende il
mio parere, che con ragione li mostraro, che altrimenti la spesa si gitta via, non senza
biasimo di cui le vedrà . Gli è vero che mal voluntieri parlo de le cose de altri, imperò
per comandamento di Vostra Maestà so[no] ubligato a farlo.
Creddo che la Maestà Vostra habbia visto in bona parte, et anche con gli efetti il mio
bon volere ch’io tengo di servir la casa potentissima d’Austria, et in quanta veneration
