Abstract:

This book contains an edited and contextualized collection of poetry that is
preserved, without an author's name, in a manuscript in the Vatican Apostolic
Library. The internal and external analysis of the manuscript has made it
possible to attribute it to Joan Salom (or Salon), a Franciscan monk who, in
addition to being a noted hebraist and astronomer, had an important role in
reforming the Gregorian calendar, and who is here also revealed as a poet.
Beyond the interest of adding previously unknown lyrics to the Catalan
literary production of the 1500s, this songbook is important because it is
situated at the time when the new Italian poetic forms of the Renaissance were
being introduced in Catalan poetry.

Aquest llibre edita i contextualitza un petit recull de poesies que avui es
conserva, sense nom d’autor, dins un manuscrit de la Biblioteca Apostòlica
Vaticana. L’anàlisi interna i externa del manuscrit ha permès atribuir-lo amb
tota seguretat a Joan Salom (o Salon), un frare franciscà que, a més
d’hebraista i astrònom reconegut –va tenir un paper important en la reforma
del calendari gregorià–, se’ns revela, doncs, també com a poeta. A les
composicions hi ha elogis a alguns contemporanis, algunes peces de caràcter
devot i unes quantes poesies adreçades a un amor frustrat envers una monja
barcelonina. Més enllà de l’interès que té augmentar la producció literària
catalana del Cinc-cents amb uns textos desconeguts, aquest cançoner és
important perquè se situa en el moment en què les noves formes poètiques
italianes del renaixement s’introdueixen en la poesia catalana.
