    Extractions: And the loud roar of greedy Acheron. How earnestly should we strive, not to stand on mountain-tops, but to trample beneath us those appetites which spring from earthly impulses. With no consciousness of the difficulties of the way, amidst these preoccupations which I have so frankly revealed, we came, long after dark, but with the full moon lending us its friendly light, to the little inn which we had left that morning before dawn. The time during which the servants have been occupied in preparing our supper, I have spent in a secluded part of the house, hurriedly jotting down these experiences on the spur of the moment, lest, in case my task were postponed, my mood should change on leaving the place, and so my interest in writing flag. (320)You will see, my dearest father, that I wish nothing to be concealed from you, for I am careful to describe to you not only my life in general but even my individual reflections. And I beseech you, in turn, to pray that these vague and wandering thoughts of mine may some time become firmly fixed, and, after having been vainly tossed about from one interest to another, may direct themselves at last toward the single, true, certain, and everlasting good. Malaucene, April 26. 1336

Remembered primarily for his poems dedicated to his unidentified muse, Laura, Petrarch was arguably the individual most responsible for the revival of ancient learning that sparked the Renaissance interest in the Greek and Latin classics . He is also the creator of the modern myth of the medieval epoch erroneously described as the Dark Ages Petrarch was born as Francesco Petracco on July 20th, 1304, to Ser Petracco, a Florentine notary, and his wife Eletta, in Arezzo. Ser Petracco was a friend and political ally of Dante , and like him was a member of the White Guelph party banished from Florence after the 1302 revolution. As exiles, the family moved frequently, living in Arezzo, Incisa, Pisa, and Genoa before finally settling down in Avignon. Petrarch spent seven years studying law, first at the University of Montpellier and then the University of Bologna, but he refused to practice it, preferring instead life as a courtier at the papal court in Avignon. Early in the morning on April 6, 1327, he encountered a young married woman named Laura at the church of St. Clare, a sight that would inspire him to write the 366 poems of the

Books have led some to learning and others to madness. Do you suppose there is any living man so unreasonable that if he found himself stricken with a dangerous ailment he would not anxiously desire to regain the blessing of health? Five enemies of peace inhabit with us - avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride; if these were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.

    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.
