Talk:Pietro Bembo

message: Various sources  have him dying on 18 January, not 11 January.  Anyone know the truth, and why?  --  JackofOz (talk) 23:05, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The most recent New Grove (the online edition, 2001) has 11 January.  The venerable, wonderful, gloriously written and occasionally inaccurate 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica has 18 January (I remember checking and doublechecking this when I rewrote this article a week or so ago).  I went with the recent date, but it could be put in a footnote; also Grove has been wrong on occasion.  Thanks, Antandrus  (talk) 23:42, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Potential sources

message: I just got here and I'm not really sure where to point this out or what to do about it (I'm in no way an editor or wiki enthusiast), but it bears observation that this sentence is so densely eloquent that it's practically unreadable to a normal audience and probably needs rewording:
"His refutation of the pervasive puritanical tendency to a profane dualistic gnosticism is elaborated in the redemptive third book of his prose text Gli Asolani reconciling fallen human nature in a Platonic cosmic transcendence, mediated by reconciling Trinitarian love, and dedicated to Lucrezia Borgia." boiled_elephant (talk) 10:09, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Apart from Gli Asolani perhaps Bembo is best known for his History of Venice which went through multiple printings. This seems unaccountably absent from this page. I just managed to obtain a first edition of one volume of it, and can add it unless someone raises an objection. Please do not do the usual Wikipedian thing of adding it for me, since I can add the title page as well.  Nicodemus (talk) 16:34, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: It's mentioned twice -- unless you mean the multiple-printings aspect -- but by all means add more about it. Looks like most of that part of the article is lifted from the 1911 Britannica. Antandrus (talk) 16:54, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
