Abstract

The author of Curial e Güelfa, a humanistic chivalric romance written in Italy around 1445-1448 in Catalan language, was aware and had studied the Epistolae Familiares by Francesco Petrarca, as it has been revealed by the literary criticism. Here are collected the contributions to this topic by several authors, which have been enlarged with other intertextual and topic connec- tions between both works. We also point out the interest of the Lombard humanist Guiniforte Barzizza in spreading the work of Petrarca in the court in Naples of Alfonso the Magnanimous (thanks to the friendship that he had with some Valencian knights and diplomats) as an indicator to be taken into account when contextualising properly —that is, in an Italian environment and in contact with the humanism— this chivalric romance.
