Letture (neo)platoniche del Triumphus Mortis nel Comento laurenziano

2022 - Leo S. Olschki

P. 223-256

  • This article investigates the influence of Petrarch's Triumphs, and of Tr. Mortis in particular, on Lorenzo de' Medici's Comento. Lorenzo's interpretation of the poem set forth in the first part of his prosimetrum, clearly influenced by Ficino's teachings on (neo)platonic Love, shows that during the last quarter of the 15th century the author of the Canzoniere was not only regarded as a model of style, but as the author of the Triumphs, was also admired for his sententiae and considered a worthy auctoritas alongside other philosophers in vernacular such as Dante and Cavalcanti.
