Petrarch (Past Masters)

Petrarch (Past Masters)

Nicholas Mann
4.4/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Steeped in the medieval culture which had produced Dante, yet in his passionate interest in classical antiquity one of the founding fathers of the Renaissance, Petrarch has a real claim to be considered the first modern man. This study explores that modernity through a series of often conflicting but always interlocking images of himself which Petrarch projects in his writings; the traveller and intellectual deeply interested in the writings of antiquity; the man of action and contemplative; and the poet laureate and moralist.
