Abstract

The Text of this collection often poems, 978 lines written in elegiac couplets, is preserved in a single manuscript (169) in the Biblioteca Augusta at Perugia (ff. 2r-33r). It is listed by Mazzatinti, who gives its date as s.xv ex. and adds a full description, and by Tammaro de Marinis. Internal evidence suggests that the poems may have been written between 1492 and 1494. Although the author, C. Aurelius Cambinius, is not mentioned by Bottiglioni or other literary historians, the Cambini family is well known. Andrea and Bernardo Cambini appear both in historical documents of the period and as authors. Bernardo Cambini wrote sonnets and Andrea Cambini wrote historical works and Tuscan translations of works written in classical and humanist Latin.
