This literary tradition continues throughout the Renaissance and concerns not only biography but also poetry, novels, short stories, and other literary genres. For the Humanists the main problem was that the differentiating history from Virgilian legend: this problem finds, in the XIVth and XVth centuries, at least four different solutions, exemplified respectively by the anonymous compiler of the 'Donatus auctus,' by Petrarch, by Sicco Polenton and by Pomponio Leto. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Literary Criticism src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: International Journal of the Classical Tradition is a copyright of Springer, 1994.
