The paper concerns the famous letter of the monk Ilaro to the chieftain Uguccione della Faggi- ola, copied by Boccaccio in his Zibaldone Laurenziano 29,8. A closer examination of archival documents and chronicles shows why it is not possible to establish connections between Uguccione, his family and the monastery of Santa Croce del Corvo where Ilaro lived and which, according to the letter, Dante is supposed to have visited in 1314 or 1315

Abstract
The paper concerns the famous letter of the monk Ilaro to the chieftain Uguccione della Faggi- ola, copied by Boccaccio in his Zibaldone Laurenziano 29,8. A closer examination of archival documents and chronicles shows why it is not possible to establish connections between Uguccione, his family and the monastery of Santa Croce del Corvo where Ilaro lived and which, according to the letter, Dante is supposed to have visited in 1314 or 1315
