Proverbii in facetie [Latin]

By Antonio Cornazzano

Proverbii in facetie is a collection of proverbs in Latin, compiled by the 15th-century Italian writer Antonio Cornazzano. This work, potentially published around 1864 though originating much earlier, offers a glimpse into the wisdom and wit of the Renaissance period. Intended for didactic purposes, the proverbs provide insights into morality, behavior, and worldly wisdom, reflecting the values and concerns of Cornazzano's time. The book stands as a valuable resource for scholars of Latin literature, Renaissance history, and the study of proverbs as a literary form. Its enduring appeal lies in its concise and insightful observations on human nature, presented in a language that has shaped Western thought for centuries.
