Byron, in Don Juan, called Pulci (143284) sire of the half-serious rhyme, and modelled his style on Pulcis major work, the Morgante. The phrase identifies the ambivalent quality of Pulcis verse, which was his distinctive legacy to the romantic epic of the renaissance, a genre he effectively initiated.
