Libri e scritture tra Firenze e Rimini : una proposta per Roberto Valturio e il De re militari, con una nota sul De miseria humanae conditionis di Poggio Bracciolini

The article proposes to identify annotations – corrections and textual additions – by the Riminese humanist Roberto Valturio in a considerable number of manuscripts of his opus maius, the De re militari. This allows further considerations on the history of the manuscript tradition of Valturio's military treatise, which appears to have developed under the close supervision of the author. Valturio's hand is also identified in ms. Firenze, Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Plut. 76.52, an important copy of the De miseria humanae conditionis, a work by the Florentinehumanist Poggio Bracciolini, dedicated to Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta, ruler of Rimini.
