Guittone d'Arezzo

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.07 sec.

Guittone d'Arezzo (c. 1230–1294)

Italian poet. In his youth he wrote mainly love poems, imitating the style of the Provençal troubadours, but he experienced a conversion about 1286 and entered a religious order. After this his poetry is chiefly religious, though his canzoni on political themes are also notable.

A quantity of letters also survives and constitutes a significant example of early Italian prose.
