Andrea da Grosseto

In 1268 Andrea da Grosseto translated the Moral Treaties of Albertanus of Brescia from Latin into Italian vernacular.

As some codes of the Grossetan vulgarizer were damaged, he used the translation done by Soffredi del Grazia in 1278, and the original Latin texts by Albertanus, kept in Turin, which could be consulted by Selmi under the supervision of professor Gorresio, Prefect of the Library, with the permission of the Ministry of Public Education.
