    Extractions: The John Rylands University Library Special Collection Guide FRANCESCO PETRARCH COLLECTION 1,000 items (dispersed). The Petrarch Collection contains sixteen incunable editions of the Rime . These range in date from the editio princeps of 1470, printed in Venice by Vindelinus de Spira, to the edition of 1486 with its fashionable large type for the verse and smaller type for the commentary. Attention can be drawn to the beautiful and accurate Lauer edition of 1471 and three different Venetian editions of 1473. Manchester also holds two editions not found in the incomparable Willard Fiske Collection at Cornell University Library : the 1477 Neapolitan edition by Arnold of Brussels, and a Venetian edition of 1480 by an unknown printer. 80 of the approximately 150 editions published in the 16th century are present including all the Aldine editions, the counterfeit Lyonese copies, and two of the ten vellum copies of the 1501 edition. One of the latter is beautifully illuminated and is in a fine embroidered binding. The Library also holds numerous editions of Petrarch's Latin works, including the earliest complete edition, printed by Amerbach in Basel in 1496.

    Extractions: Holly Barbaccia Please do not cite without the permission of the author. In his canzone I'vo pensando "), which consists of seven eighteen-line stanzas and a 10-line envoy, Petrarch articulates his competing desires for spiritual immortality, literary fame, and erotic fulfillment as an internal dialogue. He writes his inner conflict as a kind of contrasto among three of his own "voices," and the debate resolves with Petrarch in a state of metaphysical paralysis, unable to end his inner deliberation and change the course of his pursuit. The canzone (a kind of incipit to the second, in morte section of the Rime Sparse ) epitomizes the concept of interior delay, which seems on the surface to derail the progress of desire towards its goal, but which Petrarch reveals as an unavoidable consequence of uncontrollable, unfulfillable longing. In the opening stanza, Petrarch describes thought as a kind of movement or journey (" I'vo pensando " ["I go thinking"]) (1), yet his thought process only leads Petrarch around in circles. At the same time, this internal, circular repetition contrasts the inevitable teleological movement of external time, for Petrarch sees " giorno il fin più presso " ("every day the end coming near") in verse 5, and to a certain extent, he clearly longs for some kind of end. Indeed, he explains: ". . .

    Extractions: Petrarch Poems from ‘The Canzoniere A.S.Kline 2002 All Rights Reserved You who hear the sound, in scattered rhymes, of those sighs on which I fed my heart, in my first vagrant youthfulness, when I was partly other than I am, I hope to find pity, and forgiveness, for all the modes in which I talk and weep, between vain hope and vain sadness, in those who understand love through its trials. Yet I see clearly now I have become an old tale amongst all these people, so that it often makes me ashamed of myself; and shame is the fruit of my vanities, and remorse, and the clearest knowledge of how the world’s delight is a brief dream. To make a graceful act of revenge, and punish a thousand wrongs in a single day, Love secretly took up his bow again, like a man who waits the time and place to strike. My power was constricted in my heart, making defence there, and in my eyes, when the mortal blow descended there, where all other arrows had been blunted. So, confused by the first assault, it had no opportunity or strength to take up arms when they were needed

    Extractions: French Literary Nationalism in 'Petrarch's Last Controversy' And A Humanist Dispute of ca. 1395" Originally published in Proceedings of the Patristic, Medieval and Renaissance Conference , Villanova University, Vol. 4, 1979 (actual date of publication: 1981). In April, 1367, Pope Urban V left Avignon for Rome, ending the "Babylonian captivity" of almost sixty-three years. Before his departure Urban received a diplomatic mission from the king of France, Charles V. Headed by Ancel Choquart, a professor of Canon Law at the University of Paris, this mission added the young king's personal pleas to the already weighty voices of the French party among the cardinals in an attempt to persuade Urban to remain in France. Master Ancel's speech, delivered is composed of practical, political arguments. Urban himself is praised most fulsomely. The king's love, concern , and loyalty are repeatedly expressed. Ancel carefully dismisses the religious and historical argument which seemed to urge the return of the papal see to Rome. Again and again Choquart stressed Avignon's one cardinal advantage: the relative security the pope enjoyed there as compared to the warfare and political turmoil wracking the Italian peninsula. It had been the imprisonment at Anagni of Pope Boniface VIII a capitivity which hastened his death by the warlike Colonna family of Rome in 1303 which had prompted Pope Clement V (French by birth, like Urban) to move the papal see to Avignon in 1305.

Confessions of St Augustine. ‘fabula’ . Into that narrative he wove his various works, and as we unpick its threads with the benefit of our hindsight, we become aware of underlying structures which hold it all together, interlacing events, real or imagined, with all manner of texts which both evoke and on occasions actually constitute those events. It is plain that writing well and living well are in Petrarch’s case inseparable, and linked by a single fundamental method, which is that of imitation. By this I do not mean what we might call plagiarism, but

    Jonathan Usher (Edinburgh University) 5 December 2000 petrarch READSINFERNO 4. Dante's poem can become the organizing iconography  
    http://www.princeton.edu/~dante/ebdsa/usher2.htm
    
    Extractions: Dante's poem can become the organizing iconography even for works with their own autonomous traditions. One such example is Petrarch's detailed account, in Senilis 4.5, of the hidden meaning of the Aeneid . Petrarch relates that years before, in response to an unspecified attack on Virgil, he had elaborated an allegorical interpretation of the poem; now he would try to recall its outline. It was a subject he had plied Robert of Anjou with at the laureation exam. Petrarch's account of Aeneas' early adventures in this Senilis, even though technically an interpretation of Virgil, contains unmistakable references to the opening of the Comedy with its heavy emphasis on the dark, beast- filled wood of error and the saving presence of a specifically 'intellectual' guide, Achates (like Dante's Virgil in canto 1). However, Petrarch imagines that the purpose of Aeneas' descent is to not just to gain knowledge (the traditional gloss put on Aeneid 6, as in Bernardus Silvestris' etymologization of the Sibyl as what is 'scibile') but to acquire renown, 'gloria'.

    Extractions: Petrarch on the Plague Petrarch endured the Black Death in Parma, and responded to it quite unlike Boccaccio. Petrarch addressed the effects of the plague in highly personal and emotional lamentations. One such lamentation discusses the death of Laura de Noves, whom Petrarch had met at Avignon in his youth. Laura died in Avignon, a victim of the plague that was raging there, and Petrarch learned of her death in a letter he received from a friend in May of 1348. Later he expressed the sadness he felt at her death in some lines he wrote on a manuscript of Virgil: Laura, illustrious by her virtues, and long celebrated in my songs, first greeted my eyes in the days of my youth, the 6th of April, 1327, at Avignon; and in the same city, at the same hour of the same 6th of April, but in the year 1348, withdrew from life, while I was at Verona, unconscious of my loss.... Her chaste and lovely body was interred on the evening of the same day in the church of the Minorites: her soul, as I believe, returned to heaven, whence it came. To write these lines in bitter memory of this event, and in the place where they will most often meet my eyes, has in it something of a cruel sweetness, but I forget that nothing more ought in this life to please me. As the plague raged in Parma, the poet wrote to his brother, who lived in a monastery in Monrieux. His brother was the only survivor out of thirty-five people there, and had remained, alone with his dog, to guard and tend the monastery. Petrarch's letter relies greatly on the classics, much as Boccaccio's account does on the influence of Thucydides. The genuine anguish of Petrarch's letter is as apparent as is the horror of Boccaccio's account:

    Francesco petrarch On Religious Leisure (De otio religioso). Edited Translated by Susan S. Schearer. Introduction by Ronald G. Witt.  
    http://www.italicapress.com/index186.html
    
    Extractions: Ronald G. Witt AT SOME POINT in January or early February of 1347, Petrarch briefly visited the remote Carthusian monastery of Montrieux, where, four years before, his beloved brother, Gherardo, had pledged himself to live in perpetuity as a renditus, one who took the same vows as a monk but who was not cloistered. In the day and night he spent at Montrieux, Petrarch spoke privately with Gherardo, had lively discussions with other residents, and attended religious services celebrated by the brothers with "angelic singing." Unwilling to disturb the rigid discipline of the monastery longer, he reluctantly departed the next morning accompanied by the prior and the brothers to the limits of their property and he imagined them continuing to watch him until he disappeared from view. Returning to the Vaucluse, still "mindful of that whole blessed sweetness which I drank in with you," and troubled that in the course of the hasty visit he had not been able to say many things that he would like to have said, he decided "to express in writing what I was not able to do in person."

    http://www.luminarium.org/renlit/avendano.htm
    
    Extractions: Petrarca. The Renaissance reached its fulfilment in the sixteenth century. English, long neglected by the humanists' preoccupation with Greek and Latin, rose to a wholly new and conscious dignity as a medium of serious literary expression. That English should rise and attain the status of national language is not surprising in view of the fact that the spread of literacy and the introduction of printing, along with the increasingly strong nationalist feeling, did account for its consolidation. There was not only a steady progression towards developing a language of their own; English humanists also felt a peremptory need for constructing and shaping literary modes which were akin to their own set of values and culture. As The Norton Anthology of English Literature 's introduction to the sixteenth century puts it: "Literary conventions challenged Elizabethan poets to find fit forms for their experiences, to show their learning and virtuosity by the ingenious elaboration of [...] well-known patterns, and to create from these patterns something fresh and new." Be it a pastoral poem or a sonnet, the Elizabethan poet would set out to follow the path of 'ingenious invention'. He would sometimes draw on the conventions and modes of the classics or, as the case may be, he could also seek out to emulate the patterns of foreign poets (mainly Italian and French), in order to recreate their poetic utterances.
