This author criticized the Avignon papacy in the collection Liber sine nomine, which he withheld from his collection of letters to friends, Epistolae Familiaris. He wrote a series of biographies in Latin called On Illustrious Men and depicted the Battle of Zama and Hannibal's invasion of Italy in his epic poem about Scipio Africanus, (*) Africa. A poetic form named for this man consists of an octave followed by a sestet. For 10 points, identify this Italian namesake of a type of sonnet, whose Canzoniere ("can-zo-NYEH-ray") expresses his love for Laura.
