Giuliano de' Ricci e la cultura antiquaria e filologica a Firenze nel secondo Cinquecento. Una nota per la fortuna delle opere di Machiavelli
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The paper aims to examine a text by one of Niccolò Machiavelli’s grandchildren, Giuliano de’ Ricci (1543-1606), called Delle casate et famiglie fiorentine. Preserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Firenze, de’ Ricci’s work is a monumental priorista consisting of four manuscript volumes in folio, each of them devoted to a specific quarter of Florence. In Delle casate et famiglie fiorentine not only does the author describe more than eight hundred lineages, he also gathers a wealth of information from a wide set of sources about the role played in Florentine history by the members of each ‘house’. \nThe first part of the paper concentrates on de Ricci’s connections in the Florentine intellectual milieux of the second half of the sixteenth century; in particular, new light is shed on his association with the classical scholar Piero Vettori (1499-1585), whose house de’ Ricci had the frequent opportunity to visit thanks to his 1571 marriage with Vettori’s grand-daughter Lisabetta, as well as with don Vincenzio Borghini (1515-1580), spedalingo of the Innocenti, whose philological teachings (mostly devoted to texts in the vernacular) and method of historical and genealogical survey were undoubtedly inspirational for Ricci. \nIn the second part of the paper new materials are made available related to the Segretario fiorentino and his writings, which de’ Ricci’ included in his priorista but have so far been largely neglected by Machiavelli scholars.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
