Résumé
In the spring of 1459, during a prolonged stay in Siena, Pope Pius II received a number of embassies from the rulers of Europe declaring their lord’s obedience to the newly elected pope and the Apostolic See. One of the embassies was from the Marquess of Monferrat. In his very short reply to the ambassadors’ address, the pope mentioned the high and old nobility of the ruling family of Monferrat and its contribution to former crusades. He also, briefly, spoke of obedience to Roman Church as a necessary condition for salvation.
