The problem is finding documents IN TRANSLATION! I imagine that you have
already consulted:
William S. Bowsky, HENRY VII IN ITALY; THE CONFLICT OF EMPIRE AND STATE,
1310-1313. Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1960.
Also:
M. Tosti-Croce (Ed.), IL VIAGGIO DI ENRICO VII IN ITALIA. Citta' di
Castello: Edimond, 1993 (published for the Ministero per i Beni Culturali e
Ambientali).
Good luck!
