Innihald
At the Court of the Borgia, being an Account of the Reign of Pope Alexander VI written by his Master of Ceremonies, by Johann Burchard. Edited and translated by Geoffrey Parker.
The first critical edition of this work was published by E. Celani in 1906. It was first published by The Folio Society Ltd. in 1963. With frontispiece and 7 black & white illustrations.
Johann Burchard, (c.1450–1506) was an Alsatian-born priest and chronicler during the Italian Renaissance. He was born in France. Of humble origins, he was educated by the collegial chapter of St. Florent in Niederhaslach and eventually became secretary to the Bishop of Strasbourg. Burchard was ordained a priest in 1476 and moved to Rome in 1481. Burchard's importance derives from his Liber Notarum, a form of official record of the more significant papal ceremonies with which he was involved. The first critical edition of this work was published by E. Celani in 1906 as Johannis Burckardi Liber Notarum ab anno 1483 usque ad annum 1506. Celani's edition collated various earlier printed editions of the work, and a collection of uncertain notations, with Burchard's original manuscript, thereby establishing an important critical edition of this account of the papal court at the end of the fifteenth century.
