Guicciardini's Ciphers (ca.1590-1593)

A new article "Florentine Ciphers of Guicciardini (ca.1590-1593)" presents two ciphers of Giacomo Guicciardini from past publications. One is polyphonic and is similar to another polyphonic cipher related to the Grand Duke of Tuscany.
In addition to these, reference is made to a cipher of James Guicciardini. James was near the Grand Duke of Tuscany about the same time as Giacomo, but they may be different persons. If I find out anything more, I will update the article.
