Collected Orations of Pope Pius II. Edited and translated by Michael von Cotta-Schönberg. Vol. 6: Orations 26-28 (1455-1457). 4th version
Résumé
Volume 6 of the Collected Orations of Pope Pius II contains three orations from the three year period 1455-1457. Two of them were addressed to Pope Calixtus III by Piccolomini in his capacity as imperial ambassador, and one of them to King Alfonso V in his capacity as representative of the City if Siena. The first oration to Calixtus concerned the imperial declaration of obedience to the new pope, whereas the second was a memorandum on the Hussite question in the form of an oration, possibly never delivered as such. The oration to Alfonso concerned a peace with the condottiero Jacopo Piccino and city-state of Siena.
