A colleague on the floor above me, Professor Norman Housely, has posed a question
of which I know not the answer; can any of you help me/him/his student?
Thanks, George

I have a 3rd-year student doing a dissertation on the Holy Roman Empire and Italy
who is using Dante for reactions to Henry VII. Dante of course is somewhat
exceptional and he [the student] has asked me if there are any docs in translation
which give us different views about the Henrician New Dawn. In particular, some
products of the Florentine propaganda machine would be useful. I can't think of
anything, which surprises me given the Dante Industry's output. Do you know of any
handy translated sources of this kind?
