Petrarch and St. Augustine : Classical Scholarship, Christian Theology and the Origins of the Renaissance in Italy.

Challenging the familiar view of Francesco Petrarca as the 'father of humanism', this book offers a comprehensive re-interpretation of Petrarch's debt to the theology of St. Augustine, and advances a provocative new reading of the development of humanism in Italy.
