Codexes of Polerio
It is not possible to describe the analyst, and in particular reporter, of chess games and openings Giulio Cesare Polerio without describing his work.
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"
