Notes:
Text of two letters, dated Feb. 1806 and April 1807 respectively, written by Angelo Pezzana, curator at the Biblioteca di Parma, to Niccolò da Rio, [editor?] of the Giornale della letteraturau italiana, refuting assertions by Padre Domenico Maria Pellegrini, librarian of the Zeniana Collection, which appeared in vols. 10 and 12 of the Giornale, that--after the "Tavola Peutingeriana"--The oldest geographical text was the planisphere of Father Mauro Camaldolese of 1459. Pezzana proves that the "mappamundi" by Domenico and Francisco Pizigani of 1367, held in Parma, predates Camaldolese's work.
