A seminal essay on secular and religious power, De Monarchia examines the relationship between secular authority (represented by the Holy Roman Emperor) and religious authority (represented by the Pope)—a controversial subject at the time. Dante's point of view is clear; he had defended the autonomy of Florence against the demands of Pope Boniface VIII.
