Petrarch the Poet (Routledge Revivals)
In this critical and historical interpretation of Petrarch's major Italian work, the collection of poems he called the Rerum vulgarium fagmenta, Peter Hainsworth presents Petrarch as a poet of outstanding sophistication and seriousness, occupied with issues which are still central to debates about poetry and language. In the Rerum vulgarium fragmenta Petrarch reformed the received Italian tradition, creating a new kind of lyric poetry. In particular, he found solutions to the intellectual, linguistic and imaginative problems which Dante's Divine Comedy posed for the succeeding generation of poets. Petrarch the Poet illumines the complexities of Petrarch's poetic vision, which is simultaneously a form of autobiographical narrative, a poetic encyclopaedia and a meditation on the nature of poetry. The book will appeal to Italian specialists, to those interested in European poetry of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and also to readers interested generally in the nature and function of poetry.

Human factors and ethical dilemmas further complicate matters, meaning that in practice, beyond ticking the boxes of basic regulatory compliance, officers must exercise discretion and judgement, taking a risk-based approach when making compliance decisions in more advanced areas.Advanced Strategies for Financial Services Compliance outlines the more advanced issues compliance officers are likely to face, including conflicts of interest, Chinese walls and above the wall conditions, conduct risk, market manipulation, bribery and corruption, and advanced anti-money laundering. The book then goes on to offer guidance on techniques and approaches for managing the compliance function and its relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including inherent quality of controls, handling relations with regulators, dealing with difficult people, reporting, and training. Throughout the book, points are illustrated with case studies from the author's extensive experience.
