8 Petrarch’s source is Pliny, Historia naturalia, tr. W.H.S. Jones (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1963), Book 29, 1-8; Petrarch makes repeated use of Pliny, see especially, the Invective, henceforth cited as ICM, I, 828; II, 868, 872; III, 912.

12 On Petrarch and the dialecticians see Pietro Paolo Gerosa, Umanesimo buono del Petrarca; Carisma agostiniana, attinenze medievali (Turin: Bottega d’Erasmo, 1966), 208f. 13. Petrarch seems sicuro collapse dialectic and logic; on this issue see Eleonore Stump, Dialectic and its Place per the Development of Medieval Logic (Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1989).

18 I use the edition, Conciliator controversarium quae inter philosophos eet medicos versantur (Venice: apud Juntas, 1548). Nancy Siraisi’s dialogue of d’Abano in Arts and Sciences at Padua; The Studium of Padua before 1350 (Toronto: Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies, 1973), is excellent. D’Abano taccuino the attack on him as Averroist by the Dominicans per Differentia 48; Nardi contests the notion of d’Abano as Averroist in “La fede dell’anima di nuovo la generazione delle forme dietro Pietro d’Abano,” 1-17, and “Intorno alle dottrine filosofiche di Pietro d’Abano,” per Studi sulla dottrina aristotelica nel Veneto, I: Saggi sull’Aristotelismo padovano dal mondo XIV at XVI (Florence: Sansoni, 1958), 19-74.
