Notes | Born around 1627, he was an apprentice interpreter in Constantinople from 1644. In 1651, he applied for a post as interpreter, but failed Michel D´Asquier's examination. In 1653, he was appointed fully accredited interpreter in Győr replacing Josephus Barbatus, and in 1656 he was appointed an ensign in the same fortress. He was regularly entrusted with escorting Ottoman embassies between Vienna and the Hungarian border, but also performed missions to the court of the Pasha of Buda as an interpreter and ensign until his death. |
