The Cantelowe Accounts
Multilingual merchant records from Tuscany, 1450-1451
The Cantelowe Accounts record a large sale of English wool in Pisa and Florence in 1450-51 and offer the earliest evidence of an English merchant using Italian as a second language. The text features a unique mixed-language code (combining Middle English, Latin, Anglo-French and Tuscan) and an unprecedented near total use of Arabic numerals.
