Book excerpt: Franceso Petrarch (1304-1374), creator of the sonnet form, remained for more than three hundred years the most influential poet in Europe, his works more widely read than even those of Dante. This collection contains English language versions of his poems from across six centuries, in a wide variety of translations and reinterpretations. Spanning the Trionfi series and the Canzoniere - Petrarch's empassioned sonnet-sequence concerning his beloved Laura - it also includes great English poems influenced by Petrarch. From Chaucer's early adaptation of a Petrarchan sonnet in Troilus and Criseyde to the sixteenth century translations by the Earl of Surrey, Byron's mocking consideration of the Canzoniere in Don Juan and Ezra Pound's parody Silet, all provide a unique insight into the significance of the founder of the European lyric tradition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Triumphs of Petrarch: Translated Into English Verse, With an Introduction and Notes Tht dawn of Learning from Valclusa's brow 'Twas mine to mark: but Thou with eagle eye Couldst follow, when her Glory climb'd the sky, And tell the conflict with her deadly foe, Dark Superstition - with imperial Pride And Passion leagued, whose dim suffusion veil'd The blessed beam, while bigot Fury steel'd The heart, rebellious to the heavenly Guide. This Petrarch saw; and long deplored, like Thee, The Demon's fraud, that check'd the powers of Mind Blending her light with deep Tartarean stain, O may thy name assist his solemn plea In Virtue's cause! and Sorgia's Flowers, combin'd With Mersey's wreath, immortalise the strain!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sonnets, Triumphs, and Other Poems of Petrarch: Now First Completely Translated Into English Verse It is rather a singular fact that, while the other three Poets of this world-famed series - Dante, Ariosto, and Tasso have each found several translators, no complete version of the fourth, and in Italy the most popular, has hitherto been presented to the English reader. This lacune becomes the more remarkable when we consider the great influence which Petrarch has undoubtedly exercised on our poetry from the time of Chaucer downwards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Petrarch It had long been regarded as a reproach to Italy, and especially to Florence, which was Petrarch's native state, though he never lived there, that so little had been done to condense and utilise these vast materials, to correct the errors with Which the earlier editions of the Latin works abound, and to print those portions which still existed in manuscript. The libraries of Italy contain at least forty-nine manuscripts of the Letters more or less complete. It was reserved for a Frenchman, the Abbé de Sade, himself descended from the family into which Laura de N oves, the object of Petrarch's amatory verses, married, to publish the first complete life of the poet, based on his own prose writings. This biography ap peared in three quarto. Volumes in 1764, with copious translations from the Letters and Poems into French. It was on this publication, rather than on an accurate examination of the originals, that Gibbon founded his graphic account of the triumph and coronation of Petrarch, which is to be found in the seventieth chapter of his great History; and Mr Hallam appears also to have relied mainly on the Abbé de Sade in his criticism of Petrarch's philosophical and familiar compositions. Gibbon said of the Abbé de Sade, N ot an idea or a fact in the writings of Petrarch appears to have escaped him. The minor biographies of Petrarch Which have since appeared in English by Mrs Dobson and Thomas Campbell the poet are mere compilations from the Abbe de Sade's Memoirs.
