It beseeches the King to protect Prato, to unite Italy under his rule, and to restore the papacy to Rome from Avignon, where it had relocated 30 years earlier. The poem's author, Convenevole da Prato (c.1270-1338) was a writer, ambassador and educator and is well known as the boyhood teacher of Petrarch. The manuscript's illuminator, Pacino da Bonaguida (c.1300-c.1350) was a prolific Florentine artist to whom a large number of altarpieces, miniatures and illuminations are attributed. There are three surviving copies of the manuscript. The present copy, lavishly illustrated and almost 50cm in height, is held by the British Library, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Palatino Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1496150546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781496150547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 66\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.17d","brand":"Palatino Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43936362823935,"sku":"9781496150547","price":14.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e00d955e-4e36-4fab-a018-57cc6459dc1d.jpg?v=1681425128","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-regia-carmina-palatino-press-9781496150547","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
