Angelo Poliziano (1454-1494) was one of the great scholar-poets
of the Renaissance and a leading figure in the circle of Lorenzo
de'Medici "il Magnifico" in Florence. His "Silvae" are poetical
introductions to his courses in literature at the University of
Florence, written in Latin hexameters. They not only contain some
of the finest Latin poetry of the Renaissance, but also afford
unique insight into the poetical credo of a brilliant scholar as he
considers the works of his Greek and Latin predecessors as well as
of his contemporaries writing in Italian.
