Abstract

The introductory letter of Petrarch's collection of prose epistles (Epistolae Familiares) includes a number of traditional programmatic elements, including a dedication to his close friend Ludwig Van Kempen, a narrative describing the collection's genesis, and a defence of its style and contents, rooted in the example of Cicero's letters to Atticus, Quintus, and Brutus, which Petrarch had discovered some five years earlier. In other ways, Fam. 1.1 is an absolutely unprecedented introduction to an epistolary collection — ultimately staging within the letter a kind of ‘conversion narrative’ that transforms the yet-uncompleted collection into an instantiation of the spiritual journey of its author.

古代书信体合集redux:“苏格拉底”和西塞罗在彼特拉克的家庭。1.1
彼得拉克的散文书信合集(Epistolae Familiares)的介绍信包括许多传统的程序元素,包括对他的密友路德维希·范·肯彭的献礼,描述该合集起源的叙述,以及对其风格和内容的辩护,这些都植根于西塞罗给阿提克斯、昆图斯和布鲁图斯的信件的例子,这是彼得拉克大约五年前发现的。在其他方面,Fam. 1.1绝对是一个前所未有的书信体文集的介绍-最终在信中进行一种“转换叙事”,将尚未完成的文集转变为其作者精神旅程的实例。
