To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


22 Memoir on a Mappemonde !Pra Giocondi was also as remarkable for his skill in the classical languages as for his scientific and artistic attainments, which, together with the probability of his family connection with the above-named Giuliano Giocondi, will explain the reasonableness of his having the letter of Vespucci placed in his hands for translation. It is not improbable that Giuliano Giocondi was connected with the Florentine mercantile house of Berardi at Seville, of which Vespucci had
... in 1496 been the manager. Francesco Giocondi, the husband of Mona Lisa, it is true, was a native of Eerrara ; but the long period of four years, during which Leo- nardo da Vinci was engaged on the portrait of his wife, shows that he was a resident of Florence at the time when the discoveries of the Florentine Vespucci were there followed with the keenest curiosity and pride. Although these facts, however, do not prove to demonstration a connection between Leonardo and the interest in geographical explorations thus represented by Giuliano and Fra Gio- vanni Giocondi, yet I offer them for quantum valecmt, and thiuk they are not without their suggestive importance.
