Popis: This article considers Matteo Maria Boiardo’s contribution to the vernacular appropriation and transmission of William of Tyre’s late twelfth-century Chronicon in Renaissance Italy. It takes a necessarily long view of the source for Boiardo’s digression on the Crusades in his translation of the Historia Imperiale. Such a view allows us to better understand the intricate, multi-lingual, and surprising textual heritage essential to his translation.
