Note 734 — Chapter IV · THE DISCOVERY OF MAN. SPIRITUAL DESCRIPTION IN POETRY.
S. G. C. (Samuel George Chetwynd) Middlemore translation
See above, p. 319, and Landau’s Boccaccio, 64-69. It must, nevertheless, be observed that the work of Boccaccio here mentioned was written before 1344, while that of Petrarch was written after Laura’s death, that is, after 1348.
