Extractions: Italian who defined the sonnet at centre of medieval whodunnit. Of all the world's great writers, Petrarch is the best known for losing his head. On Good Friday in 1327, the then 23-year-old writer and scholar fell madly - and forlornly - in love with a woman he saw in a church congregation. By Guardian Newspapers, 4/5/2004 His bad luck, to become enamoured of a woman who did not return his affections, was the rest of humanity's good fortune. For, in seeking to express his feelings for the woman he called Laura, Francesco Petrarch gave definitive form to the sonnet and established himself as the first modern, western poet.

Extractions: Fall 1995 Vol. 17 No. 1 Abrindisi and applause for the Carl A. Kroch Rare Books Room at Olin Library. Why? Because it's a practically ideal environment for research in its special collections. Take, for example, the magnificent Willard Fiske Dante and Petrarch Collection and my odyssey toward it. Fall, 1966: The raging Arno River inundates Florence. As a graduate student in New Haven, I fantasize a dissertation topic about commentaries on epic and allegory in early printed editions of Virgil and Dante. Fall, 1968: The Biblioteca Nazionale in Florence is my library of choice for overseas research. Overseas: le mot juste. As it happens, virtually all of its holdings have been interned for post-alluvial restoration. Brimming with frustration, I cut my losses and head for the drier clime of Rome. Fall, 1970: Ithaca, on the whole less dry and (twenty-five years ago) without much access to opera, espresso, or quattrocento art. On the other hand, the Fiske Collection serves up all the books I'd hoped for: scores of early modern printed editions that bear a virtual palimpsest of contemporaneous literary history, theory, and criticism. How did they make their way to upstate New York? Assembled by Fiske in Italy from 1881 to 1904, the Dante and Petrarch Collection appears to have been virtually set in its present form when Mary Fowler catalogued it in 1916 and 1920. Then as now it has opened up a gold mine for research of all sorts, not just in literary matters, but also in the history of ideas and representations, gender relations, social practices, class distinctions, literacy, and artistic preferences.

[ No introduction written yet. ] Petrarch on The Avignon Court. (During the fourteenth century there was a schism or split in the papacy, which led to having two different popes with two different courts, one in Rome and the other in Avignon in southern France. Both papacies were rather corrupt at this time. Here Petrarch (1304-1374), the famous Italian writer and poet, describes the Avignon court.) Now I am living in France, in the Babylon [city on the Euphrates River which was used as a symbol of decadence and corruption in the Bible, especially in the New Testament Book of Revelations] of the West. The sun in its travels sees nothing more hideous than this place on the shores of the wild Rhone [river].... Here reign the successors of the poor fishermen of Galilee; they have strangely forgotten their origin. I am astounded, as I recall their predecessors, to see these men loaded with gold and clad in purple, boasting of the spoils of princes and nations; to see luxurious palaces and heights crowned with fortifications, instead of a boat turned downwards for shelter. We no longer find the simple nets which were once used to gain a frugal sustenance from the lake of Galilee, and with which, having labored all night and caught nothing, they took, at daybreak, a multitude of fishes, in the name of Jesus. One is stupefied nowadays to hear the lying tongues, and to see worthless parchments turned by a leaden seal into nets which are used in Christ's name... to catch hordes of unwary Christians. These fish, too, are dressed and laid on the burning coals of anxiety before they fill the insatiable maw of their captors.

Contact us This comparative study focuses on the shaping influence of Italy’s greatest Renaissance poet, Francesco Petrarca, on the lyric collections of France’s most celebrated Renaissance poet, Pierre de Ronsard. By helping to define the nature of Ronsard’s particular response to Petrarch, Sara Sturm-Maddox revises the history of French Renaissance "Petrarchism." Unlike previous works, which compared individual poems by these authors in terms of source and imitation, this study traces the larger lines of Ronsard’s engagement with the underlying "story" and evolving self-portrait of the Petrarchan lyric protagonist. Sturm-Maddox argues that Ronsard’s imitative strategy in three of his lyric collections—the

Poetry, Translating Pavese And Riffing On Petrarch By Richard Jackson
Translating Pavese and Riffing on petrarch Notes on These Projects by Richard Jackson My literal translations of Cesare Pavese vary only by the usual
http://www.drexel.edu/doj/poetry/richard_jackson.asp

Extractions: My literal translations of Cesare Pavese vary only by the usual translator's preferences for this synonym or expression over that. Having visited Pavese's birthplace and haunts and having read all his work, I have come to feel closer to the poet and the man. For this reason, I have tried to present as accurately as possible the tone and "feel" of the vision behind the poems while remaining true to their structure and meaning. I created parallel effects of sound and metaphor wherever I could. Petrarch was one of the earliest masters of the sonnet. The figures and images of his poems, once so vigorous and original, had been imitated by generations of admirers to the point that much of his expression had become cliched by the time Shakespeare wrote his anti-Petrarchan palinode, "My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun." My challenge was to translate Petrarch so that his language spoke with its original freshness and strength. Part of the solution arose from his own letters: "The first care of the poet is to attend to the person who is the reader ¼ to write for a specific audience." Thus I strived to put myself into Petrarch's mind in the way a writer of dramatic monologues might, using that sensibility. Taking hints from Petrarch's lines, images or by way of general paraphrase, I aimed to write an original poem using the original rhyme scheme. It's something like what Coltrane does when he borrows the tune of "Bye Bye, Blackbird" for a few bars then takes off for thirteen minutes into a realm that has only a tangential relation to the originating melody.
Zman Musing: Whoops. Petrarch Not Petrarch!

http://zman.typepad.com/zmanmuse/2004/04/whoops_petrarch.html

Extractions: The Art of Kevin Zuckerman Main From the BBC: Italian scientists have disappointed generations of love poets - and uncovered what could be a crime mystery dating back hundreds of years. Tests have shown that the head of one of Italy's most-highly revered writers - the renaissance poet Francesco Petrarch - isn't his. Petrarch's tomb was opened last year The finding has put a damper on plans to mark the 700th anniversary of his birth this year. Petrarch is the man who fine-tuned the poetic form known as the sonnet - for centuries since the poem of choice for love-sick poets everywhere. His sonnets to the mysterious Laura, whom he first spotted at church on Good Friday in the year 1327, have encouraged generations of literary detectives keen to identify the woman who inspired them.
