Ms. Codex 326 -Encyclopaedia historica et filosophica, latine et italiceThis manuscript features a historical and philosophical dictionary, with miscellaneous interpolations and additions. The articles vary greatly in length. The contents reflect particular interest in philosophy, classical persons and objects, historical figures, and the Turks. It also features poems, short stories, madrigals, sonnets, canzoni, sayings, epitaphs, proverbs, a cipher and a recipe for making wine (quite useful, I would add). It was possibly written in Venice in the second half of the 16th century.Are you curious enough? Click here for the facsimile and here for additional information. -- source link
