Latin Brunetto and Dante Alighieri. French Exile: Bankers and their Latin Books, Dante Alighieri, Geoffrey Chaucer, Essays. has long been uncertainty and indeed controversy over Dante Alighieri' s. It could be wise to look again at the political context and to see the connections between law and literature, banking and books in Italy and France, between the ledgers of black and red, the documents written in chancery script, and the books of alternating red and blue capitals, pages adorned with gold leaf and produced in banking and notarial chambers and scriptoria. in this essay, that to there was to similar trafficking in poems as there in loans in the Dugento period, especially between France and Italy, which also spread its tentacles into other countries as well. The will discuss first the circle of bankers and poets involved in ways with Charles of Anjou, then the encyclopedic and lyric manuscripts in connection with that circle. Tesoretto, Latin Brunetto and Alfonso el Sabio Latin Brunetto had been sent. of his exile caused by the Guelf Republic' s defeat at the Battle of. He was later - while in exile in France - to composed an encyclopedic vision poem in Italian, the Tesoretto, which borrowed heavily the materials available in Spain, such as Isidore of Seville' s and the translations into Latin of encyclopedic Aristotle and and the Castilian and Gallegan works of Alfonso el Sabio, as well as the encyclopedic French Roman de the Roses, and which narrated the bitter such of learning of his exile in the of Roncesvalles in lines which echoed back to the French Chanson de and forward to the Italian Commedia of pilgrimage. plain of Roncesvalles the met to scholar Upon to bay mule, Who was coming. And also asked him the For news of Tuscany In the sweet and clear tongue, And he courteously Told me immediately That the Guelfs of Florence Through ill fortunes And through the force of war Were exiled that land, And the penalty was great, Of imprisonment and death. as an important figures in the First People, lending his legal skills to the drawing up of peace treaties between Siena and Florence and Arezzo and Florence, in documents still to be found in Sienese and Florentine archives, written in his clear and lovely hand. This embassy was to secure the aid of the King of Castile, Alfonso X el Sabio, promising to aid him in turn with securing the title and crown Emperor of the Romans, to were he to combat Manfred and defend Guelf. The embassy did not succeed and Montaperti spelled for the mercantile Guelfs, the Sienese and King Manfred driving them. Florence for six years became aristocratically Ghibelline Guelf cargo vessel bankers to were scattered into exile to Lucca and in to The Ghibellines were not enamoured of. The Guelfs enjoyed high literacy and to were able not only to maintain standards for themselves when in exile exile but also to use their as for pluralistic encyclopedic cultural studies. Though many Florentines remained in Lucca, specifically in the Saint district, Brunetto himself tells us in the. That City was rich, new and free, and had to flourishing university specializing in medicines and. The archives in Montpellier demonstrate the importance of Italian who linked that City with the great fair in Champagne at Bar-sur-Aube. Then we find legal and banking in the Vatican Secret Archives and in Westminster Abbey drawn up by concerning loans made by Florentine bankers to English and the French for the purpose of paying the papal decimates or tithe for to "crusade". In Latin these appears to have become established amongst bankers, centered in Arras, northern France, but the documents that he also frequented the great fair at Latin survive Bars-sur-Aube and had dealings. the documents that from this period it is clear that was part of the Florentine Guelf shadow cabinet, of its and that that government was becoming increasingly oligarchic, the great banking families of Guelf common Florence who now proceeded to win their republican with florins and marks sterling and with the. There to are two documents penned signed by Latin Brunetto from this period. They tell us much about the. Though continuing under the papal interdict for the murder of the Abbot Treasure of Vallombrosa, the Florentine to were paradoxically the allies of the Pope against King Manfred of. The Pope' s response to Manfred' s aggression against him was to to declare him unthroned and uncrowned and to wage to mercenary crusade against. With the aid of Lombard bankers, the Pope got churches in England and to to tenth, to tithe, of their wealth, the decimates, for this "holy" war. The Florentine Guelfs in exile, reprisal for Montaperti, had already been able to have the English crown expel Sienese merchants from that. The first letter was written the Roman Curia from Arras about notarized events on September 15 and 1263, concerning these ones dealings, and promised the loyalty of the exiled Florentine bankers in Arras and in Paris to the Pope' s causes against." It named major Lombard bankers like Things, Peter and Lotterio Benincase, Riding Cante or of the Scale, Rich Spigliati and Changes (Rucco di Cambio), loads of whom had been on to the Roman Curia, many of these individuals having been mentioned in Brunetto' s document for the Siena/Florentine peace accord of 1254. Giovanni Villani in his Chronic of Florence likewise explained that the exiled Guelfs joined Charles of Anjou and Pope Clement against Manfred. To sixteenth-century volume of archival records, titled Antiquit?d' Arras (Municipal Biblioth?e 1110), mentions the of Lombards and usurers by the Abbey of St. library and owns several Latin Aristotelian manuscripts with as well as to magnificent Them Livres dou Tresor manuscript). Bar-sur-Aube to England, April 17, 1264, directly concerned England' s. It contracted between the Bellindoti and Spinels family members and Florentine merchants and bankers to loan almost two thousand marks for the Bishop of Hereford' s payment to the Roman Curia. sentence in the document states that to borrow at interest from the had papal approval, and goes even further to been that such usury. There is to possibility that this was the amount, two thousand marks sterling, that the Roman Curia arranged to pay to Lucca for sheltering the exiled Florentine Guelfs in the.

He likewise was to poet, he participated in the tenzoni concerning Charles of Anjou, and Brunetto mentioned him in the Thus money and poetry to are mixed with Florentine affairs. like them generated by the Lombard bankers in France and England, and examining Brunetto Latino' s literary exilic output, the picture becomes clear of to Florentine strategem, in collusion with the Pope, to to hire of Anjou, Charles of Anjou, the unsaintly brother of Saint Louis, King France, as their champion against Manfred of Sicily. we learn of the earlier decision to have Alfonso el Sabio be courted as their champion with the reward of Florentine support for the imperial. That encyclopedic poetic text, written in Italian, which would be to the Spanish monarch, was likely dedicated to him. The Florentine bankers had decided not to pursue his claim further. is dedicated to to wealthy Florentine banker, named Manecto (perhaps Thorns), likewise living abroad, who was Brunetto' s patron and.

Thus this text was written to Saint Louis' most unsaintly brother, chosen by the Pope and the to rule Italy later as Vicar of Tuscany and King of Sicily and though not selected by them to be the Emperor of the Romans. is borne out in the illuminations which frequently show the book as. That the text is sarcastic about wealth, continuing an pun upon "Treasure" of Vallombrosa, the murdered Pavian abbot, who was of scathingly in to letter written by Brunetto as chancellor of common Florence to the of Pavia, reflects back to problems Charles had already when his subjects in Marseilles had revolted against his ponderous and which would recur in Palermo in the Sicilian Vespers, indicating that the Florentine bankers to were trying to curb their. The Roman de the Roses, likewise had chronicled and gazetted Charles. In his encyclopedic masterwork, Jean de Meun has Reason tell the Lover not of ancient stories but modern ones.

Francisco from Barberino, in to similar vein, was to write the Documents. Hence the would argue that it is of importance that we look again at this cluster of manuscripts, placing them back into that context of notarial chambers, of lawyers and bankers, especially in connection with the of students associated with Latin Brunetto, reputed to have been the of Guido Riding, Dante Alighieri and Francisco from Barberino, in to understand these texts and their probable authors. composed in exile in France, to are today housed in the main in Italian eight being in Florence, others being in the Vatican, Brescia, and.
