Tractatus Rerum Metaphysicarum de anima in comuni et de vegetativa in specie, Tomus IIII, 1587-1588
An example of sixteenth-century lecture notes as copied by Mutio Pansa. The author of the Treatise on Metaphysics is not named, and may or may not have been Paulus Valla (Paulus Vallius). Valla had begun teaching at the Collegio Romano in 1585-1586; in the following year he taught Metaphysics, while in 1587 or 1588 he was teaching Logic. This may then represent the tail-end of Valla's course on Metaphysics, though perhaps the second piece marks the beginning of his Natural Philosophy course in 1588-1589.
Sectio Tertia: De variis urbis statuarum iconibus et earumdem declarationibus, circa 1586
Pansa studied at Perugia, before proceeding to the Collegio Romano in 1585. This manuscript, recording inscriptions of monuments in Roman churches - chiefly ecclesiastical, and often pontifical - probably dates from his earliest years in Rome. The manuscript is numbered in at least two sequences and fragmentary, but with a certain continuity. It appears to be the third section of a much longer work, and seems to be a precursor to Muzio's best known work, Della libreria Vaticana (1590). As they are now ordered, one of the quires, ends with the inscription on the monument to Alessandro Farnese, the Cardinal who funded the construction of the Church of the Gesù, and is followed by that of Ignatius of Loyala.
Physica [generalis], circa 1630
Possibly in the hand of Carlo Muzio Pansa, as the handwriting is similar to that of "[Commentaries on Aristotle, and other texts], 1630." Subtitled "In universam physicam," this manuscript contains numbered paragraphs with plates and drawings at the end of the volume.
