You're very welcome. For those who don't know, it's the StilePisano
site, with a splash page here that gets tiresome rather quickly:
http://www.stilepisano.it/
and a home page here:
http://www.stilepisano.it/home.htm
Although I've been using this site for visuals off and on since last
last fall, it has other content that some might find useful. In fact,
my first acquaintance with it was with its section 'Antichi documenti',
which has, e.g., on pp. 24-25 the whole of the _Liber maiolichinus_ from
the edition in the Fonti per la storia d'Italia (1904), but with a
slightly normalized form of the title ('maiorichinus') and with no
indication of the source (which I guessed at once and then verified by
comparing passages). These defects are characteristic of the section as
a whole but the digitized texts themselves are still very handy.
Oh, yes. In addition to the Pisan churches in the section 'Le chiese di
Pisa' there are also views of Sardinian churches from the period of
Pisan influence/rule in the section 'Sardegna'. I've used the latter's
page on San Pantaleo at Dolianova (CA) twice this year, once for
Benedict of Dolia (17. February) and once for Pantaleon of Nicomedia
(27. July).
Best again,
John Dillon
