Book Francesco Petrarca and the Revolution of Cola Di Rienzo  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Francesco Petrarca and the Revolution of Cola Di Rienzo Classic Reprint written by Mario Emilio Cosenza and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Francesco Petrarca and the Revolution of Cola Di Rienzo The present volume is the outcome of those notes that were taken during the preparation of my previous work, Petrarch's Letters to Classical Authors (see op. Cit., p. Xiv). In the pages which are now offered to the reader, I have endeavored to draw a picture of Petrarca as a statesman; for I firmly believe that, even if Petrarca had never sung a single sonnet in honor of Laura, he would still have been dear to endless generations of Italians for having been the first real Italian patriot - a man whose horizon was not bounded by narrow party lines, and whose heart, throughout his three score years and ten of busy life, was wholly devoted to the cause of I talia una.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Petrarch I. Although Petrarch has contrived to throw a beautiful veil over the figure of Love, which the Grecian and Roman Poets delighted in representing naked - it is so transparent that we can still recognize the same forms. The ideal distinction between two Loves sprang at first from the different ceremonies with which the ancients worshipped the Celestial Venus, who presided over the chaste loves of girls and wives; and the Terrestrial Venus, the avowed tutelar deity of the gallantries of ladies, who played a distinguished part in those times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Petrarch: Collected From Memoires Pour Le Vie De Petrarch In this age many discoveries were made, and useful arts established. The manners and customs of all Eu rope from this time began to wear a difl'erent aspect; and from contests and disorders arose the inestimable bles sing of liberty, to the kind influence of which many states owe their present flourishing situation, whose subjects were formerly slaves. Italy, the country which gave birth to Petrarch, was at this time rich and power ful, and superior to all others in the beauties of nature and the improvements of art: and it was just rising out of the darkness of superstition: for the homage paid to the church in the thirteenth century was carried to so high a pitch, that when cardinals and prelates appeared, persons of the first rank went before them to keep of the crowd.

  • ISBN : 014193672X
  • Pages : 376 pages

Download or read book Petrarch in English written by Thomas Roche and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-12-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
