Ambrosiana codex

[edit]

The text says: "this was the edition by Carlo Amoretti published in 1800. This edition is now famously called the Ambrosiana codex." However, the Codex Ambrosianus is something completely different. I can't find any reference to a codex. Who added this, and where does it come from? Jan Arkesteijn (talk) 16:22, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Belgian bias

[edit]

This article was edited to minimalize the most probable hypothesis on Maximilian's origin. Why a Flemish would Latinize his name as Transylvanus, when, literally, seven mountains (zeven bergen) means Septis Montis, not Transylvania. All the arguments given for his Flemish origins are as true for a Transylvanian. Then, the most relevant argument, Olahus's letter was sent in a chapter called "legends". Almost all Belgian authors admit he was Transylvanian, Hungarians, and Romanians too. Bogdan Stanciu (talk) 19:06, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
