This book looks specifically at the years leading up to Mussato’s
public coronation, on 3rd December 1315, as poet laureate for his
city / His writings are a key component of his political manoeuvres
as he tried to navigate through the troubled waters of northern
Italian politics and will therefore appeal to those interested in
that topic / The book demonstrates how the sources pertaining to
Mussato’s life and career are part of an exercise in
self-promotion and self-fashioning, intended to secure his position
within factional politics, but rooted in a philosophical approach
derived from his early classical studies.
