Abstract

This article presents Benedetto Varchi's collection of poems for Laura Battiferri, composed between 1558 and 1559 and mostly unpublished. While some scholarly attention has been given to the collection, recent scholarship has failed to notice its unity because the quires were misplaced in the library housing Varchi's papers. The article also explores the macro-textual strategies and dialogical aspects of Varchi's poetry, particularly the poetic exchange with future cardinal Silvio Antoniano. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
