This edition presents Petrarch’s main philosophical works “Letter to Posterity” and “Book of Conversations on Contempt for the World.” Petrarch shows himself to be a friend of many eras at once and defends the renewed ideal of a sage who does not withdraw from the world, but is open to the unexpected events of the world. The publication is equipped with an introductory article by Doctor of Philology Alexander Markov, revealing the place of Petrarch in the history of world culture. The publishing layout is saved in a4.pdf format.
