These editions of reports sent back by Venetian ambassadors to the
Great Council of the Republic in the sixteenth century were edited
by Eugenio Alberi (1807-78) and published between 1839 and 1863. As
Alberi notes in his preface, a law of 1296 decreed that all
embassies and legations should submit a written report to the
Council at the end of their mission, and the surviving records
provide an invaluable resource for political and economic
historians. The fifteen volumes are divided into three series, on
relations with European states outside Italy; with other Italian
states; and with the Ottoman Empire. Volume 7 (Volume 3 of the
second series), published in 1846, contains reports from
ambassadors to the papacy in the first half of the sixteenth
century. A formal visit in 1523 is enlivened by sight-seeing: Roman
churches and newly unearthed antiquities, such as the 'Laocoon',
are described.
