Then he sees the entry of Agricola, Boiardo, Politian; and, following in their steps, bringing the fifteenth century to its close, Calepino
..., Christopher Colum- bus, Philippe de Comines, Despautère, Saint-Gelais, Joseph Pontano, and Pomponazzi the sceptic.
What joys the succeeding century offers him! What a harvest for his memories ! What precious monuments for his bibliographical shelves ! What radiance does the century of Frances I and Leo X shed abroad in the world !

During the first period, Paracelsus, Erasmus, Agrippa, appear in philosophy; Ariosto, Bembo, Marot, Sannazaro, in poetry ; Guillaume du Bellay, Macchiavelli, Thomas More, in politics ; Copernicus, Fernando Cortez, Ferdinand Magellan, in scientific discovery; Mantegna, Raphael, in the arts; and Guicciardini, Aldus Manutius, Paulus ^milius and Polydore Virgil, in history.
