Abstract

The hero of this text is one of the most colorful figures of the 15th century. His life and career were extremely rich and full of unexpected turns. The descendant of an old aristocratic family had seventeen siblings, studied in Siena and Florence, and then became secretary to Cardinal Domenico Capranica. He was not characterized by steadiness of views, first a supporter of the superiority of the council over the pope, with time he changed his mind and recognized the primacy of the popes. An important step was entering the service of the Reich King Frederick III, but then he turned towards the Church, was ordained a minor priest, in 1456 he became a cardinal, and the crowning of his career was the election of the pope in 1458, where he took the name Pius II. The content of the text are 3 episodes from Piccolomini’s life related to 3 women. They were, in order: the wife of the King of Hungary and the Roman Emperor Sigismund of Luxembourg, Barbara of Cilesia, Joan of Arc, whose fascinating portrait was sketched by Aeneas in his „Memoirs”, and a certain woman whose interesting fate he heard as the pope during the audience. All three images show the author as a good observer and an outstanding humanist.

Aeneas Sylvius Piccolomini和女人
这篇文章的主人公是15世纪最丰富多彩的人物之一。他的生活和事业极其丰富,充满了意想不到的转折。他是一个古老贵族家庭的后裔,有17个兄弟姐妹,在锡耶纳和佛罗伦萨读书,后来成为红衣主教多梅尼科·卡普拉尼察的秘书。他的观点并不稳定,起初他是大公会议优于教皇的支持者,随着时间的推移,他改变了主意,承认教皇的首要地位。重要的一步是进入帝国国王腓特烈三世的服务,但后来他转向教会,被任命为小牧师,1456年成为红衣主教,1458年当选教皇是他职业生涯的顶峰,在那里他取名为庇护二世。这篇文章的内容是皮科洛米尼生活中的三个片段,涉及三个女人。他们依次是:匈牙利国王和卢森堡的罗马皇帝西吉斯蒙德的妻子,西里西亚的芭芭拉,圣女贞德,埃涅阿斯在他的《回忆录》中描绘了她迷人的肖像,还有一个女人,他在听众中听到了她作为教皇的有趣命运。这三个形象都表明作者是一个优秀的观察者和杰出的人文主义者。
