As for Carnival in Ferrara, in 1526 the humanist protonotary Celio Calcagnino dedicated a defense of Carnival, his Apologus cui titulus personati, to Alfonso I d'Este, a work that Tomaso Garzoni summarizes and generally rebuts in his chapter on masquerades in his Piazza universale (dedicated to Alfonso II d'Este); Garzoni cites the disorder occasioned by Carnival, a disorder that, ironically, he himself partly replicates in his Piazza.
Meanwhile, in 1977, he was appointed protonotary apostolic, becoming provost of the cathedral chapter 10 years later.
The bull (with bulla) was signed by Pope John Paul II and countersigned by Monsignor Angelo Lanzoni, Protonotary Apostolic.
