About the author

Francesco Petrarca

1,153 books364 followers
Famous Italian poet, scholar, and humanist Francesco Petrarca, known in English as Petrarch, collected love lyrics in Canzoniere .

People often call Petrarch the earliest Renaissance "father of humanism". Based on Petrarch's works, and to a lesser extent those of Dante Alighieri and Giovanni Boccaccio, Pietro Bembo in the 16th century created the model for the modern Italian language, which the Accademia della Crusca later endorsed. People credit Petrarch with developing the sonnet. They admired and imitated his sonnets, a model for lyrical poems throughout Europe during the Renaissance. Petrarch called the Middle Ages the Dark Ages.

Na verdade li uma edição traduzida pra português que acho não achei aqui no goodreads e tô usando essa no lugar. Foi 'Poemas de Amor de Petrarca: O Cancioneiro', tradução por Jamir Almansur Haddad, organização por Alexei Bueno, editora Ediouro. Gostei que é uma versão bilíngue, mas achei meio desorganizada - acredito que vários poemas foram omitidos propositadamente, o que eu não sabia quando comprei o livro. Mas fora isso, nada a reclamar.
