Title :
Saintly Authorship in the Italian Renaissance: The Quattrocento Reception of Catherine of Siena's Letters [The author argues that fifteenth century readers saw Catherine's letters as an important source of moral guidance. Furthermore their being written in the Italian vernacular was not a detraction. Catherine's mysticism conveyed authority as surely as Latin and Greek did for the classics. These trends crystalize in the edition of Catherine's letters printed by Aldus Manutius in 1500. He combines spiritual and literary goals with a new typeface for the saint's inspired vernacular.

Lettere di Caterina da Siena. Il testo, la tradizione, l'interpretazione [the letters of Catherine of Siena were gathered in private collections after her death and then in the Caffarini Collection, circa 1400; this was the version that passed into print; Catherine was careful to present herself as humble and unlearned, but her individual voice is heard through the letters even those revised in transmission to be more literary].
