{"product_id":"fiammetta-paradise","title":"Fiammetta. Paradise","description":"Ugolino Verino (1438–1516) was among the principal Latin poets in the Florence of Lorenzo de’Medici. A student of Cristoforo Landino, whose youthful love poems Verino imitated, Verino was a leading figure in the Renaissance revival of ancient Latin elegy. He blended Propertius, Ovid’s \u003ci\u003eAmores,\u003c\/i\u003e and elements of Petrarch’s lyric style to forge a distinctive poetic voice in a three-book cycle of poems in honor of his lady-love, Fiammetta. His \u003ci\u003eParadise,\u003c\/i\u003e by contrast, is a vision-poem indebted to Vergil’s \u003ci\u003eAeneid,\u003c\/i\u003e Dante, and Cicero’s \u003ci\u003eDream of Scipio,\u003c\/i\u003e in which Ugolino is taken on a tour of Heaven and the afterlife by the recently deceased Cosimo de’Medici.","brand":"Harvard University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49767875543384,"sku":"9780674088627","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780674088627.jpg?v=1770268544","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/fiammetta-paradise","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
