He was born in Barberino Val d'Elsa (near Florence) and lived in Florence. He is principally known for his "I Reali di Franci" ("The Royal House of France"), a prose compilation (in the form of a chronicle) of the Matter of France romance material concerning Charlemagne and Roland ("Orlandino") from various legends and chanson de gestes, and for his "Aspramonte", a reworking of the chanson de geste "Aspremont", which also features the hero Ruggiero. His works were extremely successful and popular, and were a key source of material for later Italian romance writers, such as Luigi Pulci ("Morgante"), Matteo Maria Boiardo ("Orlando Innamorato") and Ludovico Ariosto ("Orlando Furioso").
