Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores three historical songs from the Italian 15th century, each revealing a piece of medieval Italy through the lens of poetry. The songs, written by two courtly poets, Anselmo Calderoni and Giovanni Pegolotti, provide a glimpse into the political turmoil, personal rivalries, and moral dilemmas of the time. Calderoni's two songs address the conflicts between Filippo Maria, Duke of Milan, and the cities of Florence and Venice, offering insights into the power struggles and diplomatic strategies of the period. Pegolotti's song, on the other hand, is a searing indictment of the Venetian Republic for its execution of Francesco da Carrara and his sons, reflecting the moral outrage and political tensions of the era. Together, these songs offer a vivid and multifaceted portrait of 15th-century Italy, exploring themes of power, loyalty, justice, and betrayal. They shed light on the complex relationships between rulers and their subjects, the role of morality in politics, and the enduring power of poetry to capture the spirit of an age. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
