  Abstract:  Dialogicity between the Bible, Humanism and the Middle Ages in the Secretum of Francesco Petrarca. While tracing the biblical intertext in Petrarch’s Secretum, a new glimmer seems to illuminate upon the sense of the book. The title echoes medieval monastic texts that clarify the importance of an autobiographical data of the poet; referring to his Carthusian brother’s monastic formation, Petrarch traces the profile of the humanist scholar.

Keywords: Augustine of Hippo, Francesco Petrarca, humanism, biblical intertext, vision, mainspring, monastic literature, secretum meum, Carthusian formation, humanist scholar.

Con il rintraccio dell’intertesto biblico nel Secretum di Petrarca si cerca un nuovo spiraglio per l’approfondimento del senso dell’opera. I rimandi del titolo a testi monastici medievali illuminano la portata della componente autobiografica riferita al fratello certosino nel processo di configurazione dell’opera stessa e del profilo dell’intellettuale umanista.

Parole chiave: Agostino d’Ippona, Francesco Petrarca, umanesimo, intertesto biblico, visione, movente, letteratura monastica, secretum meum, formazione del certosino, intellettuale umanista.
