The essay by Davide Rondoni unveils the secrets and meanings of this universal sonnet, which relates the nature of man to the infinite.

The work of the first great writer in vernacular, the Canzoniere is a cornerstone of Italian literature, and includes 366 poems written and perfected over a lifetime.

The central theme is Petrarch’s love for Laura, whom he met in Avignon in 1327. This unfulfilled love is reflected in a wide range of moods, which oscillate between the sentimental idealization of his beloved and the painful awareness that this earthly passion hinders his spiritual tension towards God.
