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.

Title : La "Historia de la linda Melosina": una o due versioni Castigliane del romano di Jean d'Arras? [the author considers two editions in Castilian Spanish of the "Melusine" of Jean d'Arras; the version published in Toulouse in 1489 is one of several translations of the "Melusine" published in the fifteenth century; this translation is similar to the versions circulating in France at the time but with deliberate modifications; the other translation (Seville, 1526) differs to a greater degree; the latter uses illustrations less suitable to the story, drawing on stock plates in the printer's shop].
