his evidence the past tense use regarding Paolo dal Pozzo Toscanelli, who died in 1482. He also states that the work had to be finished before 1489, as some changes to one of the buildings of Brunelleschi were made in that year and not recorded in the biography. When it comes to authorship of the Magliabecchiana, the debate starts with the question of whether the Magl. is an original document or merely a copy. While Moreni and Milanesi agree that the Magl. is indeed the original document, only Frey offers evidence on this conclusion. The reason for the importance of this debate is, that the evidence of the authorship of the document that Milanesi presents, is based on the handwriting of the document. Subsequently, if the document is merely a copy and not the original, Manetti is not the original author of the Magl. It is further important that Milanesi attributes the handwriting of the document to Manetti on the basis of Manetti's work "the fat woodworker". This has led to critique, as Manetti is known for making copies of other works such as Ficino's translation of "Dante's Monarchy". Another part of the critique is that the work differs from other writing attributed to Manetti, both in length and style. The absence of corrections in the text has led to both arguments for and against it being a copy. It has also been attributed to a fluent style of writing which was practiced frequently by Florentinian humanists. Although no final conclusion can be drawn, Manetti's handwriting was found under a pasted-over piece of paper, negating much of the evidence for a copy based on the absence of corrections. Dante's Inferno Although Dante described his Inferno, the specifics of his architecture are left to the imagination of his fellow thinkers, which has led to various versions of the Inferno. Manetti's version of Dante's Inferno gained attention through Galileo Galilei and his lectures regarding Dante's inferno in 1588. In these lectures, Galileo compared the shape, location and size of proposed Infernos by Antonio Manetti and Alessandro Vellutello of Lucca. The reasoning behind Galileo's favoritism towards Manetti's work can be traced towards a political conflict with Vellutello's hometown of Lucca. During a previous military conflict between the two places in 1430, Filipo Brunelleschi had suggested to re-route a river in order to isolate Lucca and force a surrender to the siege. However, this
