This article examines some of Brunetto Latini's works written in the French and Tuscan vernaculars, in prose or poetry, with particular attention to the Tesoretto. The analysis casts light on his articulated, flexible political agenda, one in which popular culture and the aristocratic element are in a dialogic relationship; and Brunetto's unique form of Guelphism further complicates and enriches the republican dialectic of his thought.

Abstract
This article examines some of Brunetto Latini's works written in the French and Tuscan vernaculars, in prose or poetry, with particular attention to the Tesoretto. The analysis casts light on his articulated, flexible political agenda, one in which popular culture and the aristocratic element are in a dialogic relationship; and Brunetto's unique form of Guelphism further complicates and enriches the republican dialectic of his thought.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
