The interdependence between political ideas and historical narrative has been thesubject of intense scrutiny in the last decades. Focusing on the political ideas underlyingthe historical narrative in three Italian literary texts written between the endof the thirteenth and the first half of the fourteenth century: the anonymous Intelligenza,the Amorosa Visione by Giovanni Boccaccio, and the Dittamondo by Faziodegli Uberti, this paper highlights the association of text and image in their accountof Ancient History and suggests that these authors develop - against the backdrop ofthe political crisis in Tuscany and Italy - a new and more political interpretation of thethemes traditionally associated with the history of Troy, Thebes and Rome, especiallythose of the pride of the sovereigns and the moral blindness which leads to tyranny.
