Title: Collected letters
Description: This critical edition of Filelfo’s complete canonical letter collection in forty-eight books offers historians as well as literary scholars access to Filelfo’s vast oeuvre, and through it to the multifaceted world of Quattrocento humanism. Documenting the various previous editorial stages that the epistolarium underwent, this edition of Filelfo’s Collected letters is primarily based on the final, authorised redaction as it is preserved in manuscript 873 of the Biblioteca Trivulziana in Milan, a collection of over two-thousand letters written between 1427 and 1477, established by Filelfo himself and transcribed under his supervision--Page 4 of cover.
