Description

• Summary: CCCC MS 40 is the earliest known text by Francesco Petrarca (Petrarch) (1304-74) to be copied in England in the last quarter of the fourteenth century, his De remediis utriusque fortunae. The text is concerned with the limitations of worldly success and pleasure, and the problems of misfortune and adversity. A large part of this is in the form of a dialogue between joy (Gaudium) and adversity (Dolor) with reason (Ratio). It is given a Humanist emphasis by its supposed use of a classical model - the De remediis fortuitorum, attributed in the Middle Ages to Seneca. There is no evidence for the place of production or ownership of the manuscript.
