Interesting quote from Anton Maria Del Chiaro:
Constantin Brâncoveanu avea o fire atît de blîndă încît nu credea niciodată că ar putea fi trădat. Am băgat de seamă cu cea mai mare uimire că la curtea lui nu se ştia ce înseamnă să se păstreze o taină. Dacă veneau curieri de la Constantinopol, mai înainte ca aceştia să descalece pentru a aduce domnului scrisorile, se ştiau prin dughene ştirile cele mai tainice; astfel că mulţi îşi îngăduiau să le scrie prietenilor şi corespondenţilor lor în ţări străine. Îmi amintesc că am citit eu însumi (la Tîrgovişte, unde se afla atunci domnul) într-o gazetă din 1713, aceste cuvinte, întocmai: «Scriu unii din Ţara Românească că la Constantinopol etc., etc.» Par să fie lucruri de puţină însemnătate, dar urmările lor, tragice; am arătat ce mare caz făceau turcii, cărora li s-a trimis un exemplar din acea gazetă de către duşmanii lui Brâncoveanu.

- What is the relevancy of this highly subjective claim of Chiaro's? All I can read into it is that Brâncoveanu was an idiot. Dahn 16:23, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- There`s no relevancy, because it wasn`t my intention in the first place as for this quote to be used in the article. I know it`s a personal view of Chiaro, but I found this part interesting, and expected some feedback on it, irrespective of whose might be, yours or of other persons. Anyway, I don`t think Chiaro neither saw, or tried to present Brancoveanu as an idiot, rather than a peculiar person. Greier 16:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry about that. The "idiot" part was, of course, my conclusion (I guess it constitutes my feedback). Dahn 16:39, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
