ORGOTTEN LETTERS OF PIETRO BEMBO: LETTERE FAMILIARI, INEDITE E VARIE

Summary/Abstract: Pietro Bembo, an Italian cardinal, writer, and humanist, made a significant contribution to Italian literature of humanism and the Renaissance with his creative works. Among his prose works, his epistles compiled in several volumes are certainly noteworthy. In one of the volumes of Bembo's epistles, published under the title Lettere di M. Pietro Bembo, we encounter letters addressed to his friends, relatives, as well as high officials. Since there is not much information about this collection of epistles in Italian historiography, the aim of our research is precisely to study and analyse individual examples of letters that shed light on many facts about literary trends, culture, and everyday life of that time.
