Petrarch’s Work in the Literary System of His Age
Project goals
The aim of this project is to crown a research carried out for many years in petrarcology and the Italian literature of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The project is intended to analyse Petrarch’s position in the literary system of his age, specifically in the field of political essays and dialogical forms. Apart from several papers about specific questions, the project provides the scholarly or widely humanistic oriented audience with two monographs of vital importance in this field: a commented anthology of Petrarch’s political texts (in English) and a Czech monograph (in 2 volumes) about the dialogical forms in the Italian literature of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, with particular emphasis on Petrarch’s leading role in this literary genre. These monographs do not have any parallel in foreign or Czech scholarly literature and would represent an important point of reference for most scholars.

Dílo Francesca Petrarky v dobovém literárním systému
Annotation in Czech
Cílem tohoto projektu je završit mnohaletý výzkum v oboru petrarkologie a italské literatury středověku a renesance. Hodlá zkoumat Petrarkovo místo v dobovém literárním systému, konkrétně na poli politické publicistiky a literárního dialogu. Kromě specializovaných článků věnovaných dílčím tématům projekt připraví pro vědecké a humanitně vzdělané publikum tři monografické publikace: anglicky psanou komentovanou antologii Petrarkovy politicky orientovaných textů a česky psanou monografii (2 sv.) o dialogických formách v italské středověké a renesanční literatuře, se zvláštním důrazem na Petrarkovu klíčovou roli v tomto literárním žánru. Tyto monografie nemají obdobu v české ani světové odborné literatuře a mohly by se stát významnými referenčními publikacemi.

Project results evaluation
There have occurred major problems during realisation of the project.

The panel after the thorough discussion didn’t accept this proposal, as it was inconsistent with the project timetable.
