Brunetto Latini's Tresor was translated and abridged into pseudo Italian verses between 1283 and 1310. After a brief overview of the two Tuscan witnesses, the Palatine 807 (16th century) and the Panciatichiano 28 (mid-15th century), both preserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale in Florence, this article discusses the 14th century codex of the Houghton Library of Harvard University in Cambridge (Massachusetts) marked Ital. 117, the verse translation’s oldest witness. Some notes on the relationship between prose and verse in French and Italian literature of the fourteenth century conclude the work.

Abstract
Brunetto Latini's Tresor was translated and abridged into pseudo Italian verses between 1283 and 1310. After a brief overview of the two Tuscan witnesses, the Palatine 807 (16th century) and the Panciatichiano 28 (mid-15th century), both preserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale in Florence, this article discusses the 14th century codex of the Houghton Library of Harvard University in Cambridge (Massachusetts) marked Ital. 117, the verse translation’s oldest witness. Some notes on the relationship between prose and verse in French and Italian literature of the fourteenth century conclude the work.File in questo prodotto:
