Abstract:

The article includes an analysis and critical edition of an anonymous letter which questioned the primacy of Florentine writers over ancient Roman ones in terms of eloquence and scholarship. A brief codicological description of the BJ 519 manuscript, which contains this text, and a characterisation of its contents are presented. Phrases used in the text, topoi, references to ancient authors, and the work’s context within the intellectual landscape of fourteenth- and early fifteenth-century Italy are discussed.
