Specialist Notes
In the work entitled "Circolo urbaniano" Ericio Puteano had determined the division of the year into calendar days. Micalori was commissioned by Cardinal Guidi to refute the writing, an operation which he conducted with "modest and judicious censorship" in the "Crisis". The latter was followed by the response of the Putean who manifested in the "Apocrisis" & nbsp; his resentment for having seen himself challenged. The dispute ended with the "Antapocrisis" of Micalore, winner of the dispute. cf. Of the illustrious men of Urbino, 1818, p.69.
