Abstract
This essay analyses the writings of a teacher of Piacenza, Bartholomew de Ripa, who lived and worked between the XIV and the XV century in Northern Italy (Cremona, Mantua, Milan, Pavia and Piacenza). He is the author of many short poems which were copied, among other texts, in a manuscript now Milan, Bibl. Trivulziana, Triv. 760, fol. 43-87, written by his own hand. Among Bartholomew’s poems, a dialogue between the Death and the keeper of the gates of Piacenza, which was written during the plague of 1399, is noteworthy. This text is published here for the first time.
