I know I’m a bit of a conspiracy theorist so open question to #medievaltwitter. what do you read here? “I am the daughter of king..”

In not even sure how the proverb (when you’re reconciling with an enemy you better add another lock to the door) is “vulgar”- sounds like good advice coming from years of Irish experience negotiating with the English lords

(2/2) che quando si tratta de riconciliarsi coll'inimico bisogna metter un altra serratura alla Porta. Doge: il proverbio Irlandese[…]che in vero è degno di essere conservato nella memoria di ciascuno al pari di qualunque detto di Tucidide,ò d'altri scrittori antichi,et moderni

You gotta love this Venetian doge from 1607 putting this British prat in his place: English Ambassador Il che mi fà ricordare d' un proverbio Irlandese, et assai volgare, dimaniera che è in bocca di tutte quelle barbare genti (1/2)

Poor Ralph

Teenage Italians just using Dante quotes for their teenage needs should be something we talk about more
