Summary/Abstract: Marin Barleti remains true to the humanist notion that everything useful is also beautiful: mankind and human potential are beautiful and useful for Barleti; the man and the power of his words are reinforced by the strength of Barleti’s heart and words, and it is precisely there that we also find the source of the metaphysics and transcendence of the work that elevate his style.
