Codexes of Polerio

The work of Giulio Cesare Polerio consist exclusively in handwritten Codexes. Accordingly, there is always a single, original Codex of Giulio Cesare Polerio existant. Sanvito 2005 has organised these 8 original Codexes of Giulio Cesare Polerio both by location and by supposed age. Abbreviations 1 Sv - 8 Sv are used to refer to this organisation primarily done by supposed age. Among these 8 Codexes , one has a questionable existance/Polerio provenience (8 Sv). Another has a missing location (7 Sv = the so called "Doazan"). In doubt, reference is made to Salvio 2005 (4 Sv = Codex # 4 as organised by Sanvito 2005).

Polerio Codexes by age

1 Sv = "7.8.1584?" (Sanvito [Baffioni])
2 Sv = "1579/80" (Baffioni)
3 Sv = "later than 1579 but earlier than 1585" (Baffioni)
4 Sv = "1594, before June 30" (Sanvito [Murry])
5 Sv = "20.06.1594, Rome" (Sanvito [Baffioni])
6 Sv = "XVIth century for sure (Leon)
7 Sv = (undetermined?)
8 Sv = (questionable Polerio)

Polerio Codexes by location

1 Sv = Bibliothèque nationale de France "955"
2 Sv = Vatican Library "Boncompagni 3"
3 Sv = Vatican Library "Boncompagni 2"
4 Sv = Bibliothèques de Toulouse "Tolosa"
5 Sv = Bibliothèque nationale de France "948
6 Sv = Cleveland Public Library "Leon"
7 Sv = unknown "Doazan"
8 Sv ? Cleveland Public Library "L'elegantia"
