  • Introduction 1
    NOTES Introduction 1. For text and discussion of this important letter, see Petrarch, Senile V 2, ed. Monica Berté (Florence: Le Lettere, 1998). Petrarch’s scribe, who attaches the date “August 28,” seems to have dictated it in 1364, but Boccaccio didn’t receive it until 1366. It was one of three letters (Seniles 5.1–3) stolen and kept as souvenirs of their famed author by the messenger charged with their deliv- ery. Petrarch recovered them and asked his trusted friend Donato Albanzani to carry them to their destination. See the commentary by Ugo Dotti in Pe- trarch’s Lettres de la veillesse. Rerum senilium, ed. Elvira Nota (Paris: Les Belles Lettres, 2003), 2:529, n. 42. For the English, see Petrarch, Letters of Old Age. Rerum senilium libri I–XVII, trans. Aldo S. Bernardo, Saul Levin, and Reta A. Bernardo (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1992). 2. Petrarch tries to soothe Boccaccio by recalling Seneca, who ranked Cicero second after Virgil among Latin writers, followed by Asinius Pollio, and then Livy. The fl attering implication is that Boccaccio is “one up” on Livy. In an earlier letter to Boccaccio (Familiares 21.15), Petrarch cringes to think of Dante’s plebian public—fullers, tavern keepers, and woolworkers. He acknowledges, however, Dante’s superiority in the vernacular. See Petrarch Familiares 21.15.24 in Le familiari, ed. Vittorio Rossi and Umberto Bosco (Florence: Sansoni, 1926–42), 4:99: “in vulgari eloquio quam carminibus aut prosa clarior atque altior assurgit”; for the translation, Letters on Familiar Mat- ters: Rerum familiarium libri XVII–XXIV, trans.
