Imprisoned for conspiring against Pope Paul II, Platina (1421–1481) returned to favor under Pope Sixtus IV, and composed this biographical compendium of the Roman popes, which became the standard reference on papal history for early modern Europe. This first complete translation into English is accompanied by an improved Latin text.
