ONE OF THE FINEST PRINTINGS OF THE GREAT ITALIAN POET THIS REMINISCENT OF THE GREAT BODONI PRINTINGS The work is a connoisseur's and bibliophile's treasure printed in a small number of copies on large paper. Published with the valuable work and study of Antonio Marsand and the true reference edition for all later publications. Notable for its refinement and typographic elegance comparable to Bodoni's editions and for the scrupulous attention paid to the critical analysis of texts. At the end of the book a rich and accurate bibliography of all the previous editions of Pertrarca's works.<br> One of the "great triumvirate" of Italian poets Francesco Petrarch's sonnets were admired and imitated throughout Europe during the Renaissance and they served as the model for nearly all later Western lyrical poetry. He was also the first true reviver of learning in Medieval Europe. He was a great student of the classical works-- histories poetry law and orations and he included in his studies many ancient books and manuscripts that the medieval period had ignored for nearly a millennium. He also closely followed the politics and learning of his own age. It was with Petrarca that the ancient and the modern eras met together and a new stadium for the Human spirit that which we are wont to style Renaissance was opened.<br> Many have stated that the book is as beautiful as a Bodoni printing.<br> <br>Brunet IV 556.
