Notre Dame Rome, the Notre Dame Center for Italian Studies and the Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici at the University of Roma Tre collaborate on an annual program dedicated to Francesco Petrarca. The aim of Laureatus in Urbe has been to create a regular meeting for scholars of Petrarch in the early stages of their career: over the years, Laureatus in Urbe has successfully established itself as a meeting place and “research laboratory” for young scholars from both Italy and abroad, who have found in the program a unique sounding-board for their research. Past editions of the program have included nearly one hundred scholars from around the world.
