Note 74 — Chapter XI · Globes of the Second Half of the Seventeenth Century

Practically the only information we have concerning Moroncelli, aside from that which may be gained from his globes, is contained in a manuscript preserved in the Biolioteca Municipale of Fabriano, titled, “Vite dei Monaci Illustri di S. Benedetto in Fabriano,” by the Monk Feliziani, who died in the year 1683. Extracts from this have courteously been sent the author in reply to letters of inquiry. See also Fiorini, op. cit., p. 310.
