Description: Firenze: Leo S. Olschki, 2009. 24cm., pbk., 423pp. Summary; Andrea Mantegna’s friend and leading figure at the court of Ludovico Gonzaga, Filippo Nuvoloni combines in his Dyalogo the dialogic model of Alberti’s Deifira and the eulogistic portrait of Lucian’s Imagines, providing a startling manifesto of courtly poetry. Through an aristocratic conversation with his faithful tutor (Polysopho), the prince of lovers (Archophilo) finds a remedy against lovesickness in the fabulous portrait of Archigynia: queen of women and initiatory guide to the realm of true love. (Biblioteca Mantovana, 8)
