Résumé : Dans cet essai, j’envisagerai la façon dont Francesco Petrarca et Coluccio Salutati abordent les récits troyens de Dyctis et Darès. Nos sources témoignent que Pétrarque connais- sait bien ces textes. De façon analogue, à l’égard de Salutati, les recherches montrent qu’il employait implicitement les chroniques troyennes latines tandis qu’il les méprisait explici- tement.
Abstract: In this paper I examine the approach of Francesco Petrarca and Coluccio Salutati to the Trojan chronicles of Dictys and Dares. The sources in our possession show a relevant familiarity with those texts on the part of Petrarca. As for Salutati, careful examination shows that, despite his misgivings for those texts, he used them constantly for a number of purposes, documentary as well as literary.
