| Abstract: |
This article draws attention to the recent discovery in the "Rafael Sari" City Library in Alghero (Sardinia) of an important parchment manuscript of Tuscan origin, dating from the second half of the fourteenth century. The specimen, which has lost various leaves and whole quires, contains the Aeneid , followed by a series of epigrams on Virgilian themes (including the Carmina duodecim sapientium ), the first part of the Moretum , and two late-medieval texts that have come down to us intact: Dante's celebrated VII epistle to the emperor Henry VII and Petrarch's verse epistle II 5 to Clement VI. The article also features a detailed description of the manuscript and its content, as well as the transcription of two pieces of anonymous verse that are interesting for their rarity. |
