“I am engrossed in reading the elder Italian poets, beginning with Berni, from whom I shall proceed to Pulci and Politian.”

Fuller, Margaret. The Letters of Margaret Fuller. Edited by Robert N. Hudspeth. Vol. I. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1983.

Inferred Hudspeth identified his major work as Il Morgante Maggiore (1483), the most likely text for such a reading program, though Fuller has not yet begun reading him.
