Autorenporträt
Francesco Petrarca (Arezzo, 1304 - Arquà, 1374), poeta y humanista, estudió Leyes en Montpellier y Bolonia. Estudioso de los grandes autores clásicos, escribió buena parte de su obra en latín-«Africa», «De viris illustribus», «Secretum» y su correspondencia, entre otras-, aunque es conocido principalmente por los poemas en italiano reunidos en el «Cancionero». Escritor de una sensibilidad que trasciende el paso de los siglos, fue coronado poeta en el Capitolio en 1341 y disfrutó de gran reconocimiento público en vida.
