Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Secret of Petrarch In 1342, Petrarch wrote what perhaps is the most remarkable of all his works, - His Secret. It takes the form of a dialogue with Saint Augustine, to whom he lays bare the inmost recesses of his heart and mind. The story of his love and ambition is told with a candour almost impossible in these days, and in a tone quite new to those days. In it we find ourselves in presence of the first man of his age, and the initiator of all modern culture. His passion for glory may have been early sated, but his love for Laura burned within him to the close of his life. It is chiefly his relation to her that, after six centuries, still appeals to us with undying interest. For those who have loved long, and those who have long mourned a personal loss, have ever found in Petrarch a colleague and consoler. The present work consists of a prose and a poetical portion.
