Excerpt from Liber Ad Honorem Augusti: Secondo IL. Cod; 120 della Biblioteca Civica di Berna; Testo, con una Tavola
Appena fu conosciuto il Carmo di Pietro da Eboli si cercò d' indagare quanto si poteva del nome, dell'essere, del carattere, della cultura del suo autore; ma ognuna di tali indagini generò dubbi e discussioni che io debbo necessariamente esporre, e, sin dove è possibile, risolvere. Comincerò dalle questioni che si riferiscono al nome.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents newly edited and annotated text of the Liber ad honorem Augusti, a Latin poem by the medieval Italian writer Peter of Eboli. Written in the late 12th century, the poem is a valuable historical source on the struggle for the Sicilian throne between the Hohenstaufen Emperor Henry VI and Tancred of Lecce, a claimant from a rival dynasty. The author, a strong supporter of Henry, offers a vivid account of the events of the war, including military campaigns, diplomatic negotiations, and personal interactions between the key figures involved. The poem is also notable for its literary qualities, with the author employing rhetorical flourishes, vivid imagery, and biting satire to bring his narrative to life.
