422 HISTORY OF THE POPES. acter. In so doing Panvinio worked with a skill that v/aS worthy of a better cause. For example, the genealogical tree of Pius IV., which had been shown to take its roots in the soil of Florence, is not suppressed, but is depreciated by the remark that other families as well boasted of a similar origin and parentage. When he speaks of the father of the Pope, he makes the depreciatory remark that he rose to famie bj'' farming the taxes. The story of the wonderful light that shone round the cradle of Pius IV. is omitted. Moreover, certain rather severe remarks about Paul IV., who had been very much esteem.ed by Pius V., are excised. In the same way the account of the relations between Cardinal Medici and Paul IV. are remodelled. Nor is the most important change effected by Panvinio his substantial transformation of his treatmient of the trial and fall of the Carafa in the third edition, which is no longer, as it was in the second, favourable to Pius IV., but has now in conformity to the current popular view, become much m.ore unfavourable to him ; much more radical, however, are the changes which he makes in his description of the character of Pius IV., whose goodness of heart Panvinio had brought out very strongly in the second edition. None of this it is true, is retracted, but by means of spiteful additions, Pius IV. is made to appear in quite a different light. For example, before his election he was looked upon as a good-natured man, but afterwards he proved himself to be very different, and from being a man of honest and open character, he suddenly became deceitful and spiteful. Hitherto in this mixture of praise and blame, people saw an argument for the impartiality of Panvinio, and a judicious distribution of light and shade, but since Susta discovered the genesis of these various biographical efforts of Panvinio such a view has become quite untenable. An author who, in the course of six years, on account of his susceptibility to external influences, changes so completely, and three separate times, his characterization of the same person cannot be considered as a reliable witness as to Pius IV. If for so long a time the last description of Pius IV. given by Panvinio passed for an impartial estimate, its origin shows it to have been an unbalanced combination of an officially inspired panegyric with a depreciation of the person in ques- tion, which only came into being when public opinion in Rome had changed.
APP'ENDIX. 423 Mo substantial change in this view is called for by a letter from Panvinio to Cardinal Charles Borromeo, dated August 16, 1567, and preserved in Cod. F. 39 Inf. of the Ambrosian Library, Milan. Tacchi Venturi (I., xi) has given a short summary of this. The whole content is as follows : I am about to write some biographies of the Popes from Sixtus IV. to Pius IV. " per aggi-ongerle al Platina " which has recently been printed. I have been asked in many quarters to republish Platina, and so 1 must add the life of Pius IV., and I do not like to issue the book before you have examined it. " lo sono obligato alia memoria di Pio IV. et pero son proceduto nel bene che lui fece con molte et effetuose parole ; nel male (perche anche hii fu huomo) eon tutto quel rispetto et brevi-ta che ho saputo senza pregiudicar perc) alia verita et questo I'ho fatto accio che mi sia creduto il vero et non entri in opinione di bugiardo et adulatore, dalli quali errori me ne guardo quanto posso. V.S. piacendosi vedra questa debol faticha et la racconciera, mutera, aggiongera, levara quello che gli parra sia honesto et conveniente che tanto mi sforzaro di lassar lei comandara." I beg for a speedy reply, as I must send the book to Cologne, where it is being printed. It is already completed down to Clement VII. So far it is not known what Borromeo replied, but the letter is highly significative of Panvinio 's methods. It is painful to meet with such devices in a scholar, ^ who otherwise is so meritorious. Panvinio was a man of talent, but not of character. The setting forth of contemporary history is a dangerous reef for any historian, and Panvinio has run upon it."^ ' It is only recently that the learned investigations of O. Hartio have brought to light a merit of Panvinio 's, hitlierto unknown ; his attempt at an iconography of the Popes, in whicli the liturgical vestments have been taken into consideration v.-ith much greater exactitude than in all the later collections of portraits of the Popes (see Histor. Jahrbuch, XXXVIII., 2S-t-314, and Die Griindung der Miinoiiever Ilofbibliothek durch Albrecht V. und Johann Jakob Fugger, Munich, 1919, 218, 274, 410). ' So far so little is known of the character of Panvinio that, especially in this connection, the monograph prepared by Schrors, based upon his deep studies, seems very much wanted.
