تاريخ إيطاليا
None of Francesco Guicciardini's works were published during his lifetime. It was not until 1561 that the first sixteen of the twenty books of his "History of Italy" were published. The first English "translation" by Sir Geffray Fenton was published in 1579. Until 1857, only the "History" and a small number of extracts from his aphorisms were known. In that year, his descendants opened the Guicciardini family archives and committed to Giuseppe Canestrini the publication of his memoirs in ten volumes.
