Le prime lettere di Taddeo Lardi dall’Ungheria (1487–1499)

Résumé

The article aims to give an overview of the activity of Taddeo Lardi, a servant of the Este court in Ferrara, who accompanied in 1487 the eight-year-old Ippolito d’Este to the Hungarian court. During his first stay (or first two stays) in the Kingdom of Hungary (1487–1499), Lardi had important charges at the young archbishop’s court, and his letters testify his overall interest towards the land where he returned to again after some years and where he died in 1512.
