Excerpt from Dante His Time Tm: vogue which the study of Dante enjoys at the present time is a phenomenon somewhat dificult to explain. It is not part of any general interest in the Italian language and literature; which, in England at all events, still suffer under the deplorable and barbarous neglect perceived and lamented by Mr. Gladstone a quarter of a century ago.

Excerpt from Dante, His Times and His Work In connection with some of the remarks in the opening chapter, Professor Butcher's Essay on The Dawn of Romanticism in Greek Poetry should be noticed. I do not think that the aecom plished author's view is incompatible with mine; though I admit that I had not taken much account of the Greek writers whom we call post-classical. But it is to be noted, as bearing on the question raised in the second footnote on p. 9, that most or all of the writers whom he cites were either Asiatics or nearly touched by Asiatic influences.

Excerpt from Dante, La Divina Commedia: Notes on Inferno Line 1. Nel mezzo, 8tc midway in the course of our mortal life, ' i. E. At thirty-five years of age, in accordance with the saying of the Psalmist, The days of our age are threescore years and ten, ' Ps. Xc. To. Dante was born in 1265, and consequently his conversion, ' which was the turning-point of his spiritual life, and which he ascribes to the effect of his Vision upon him, took place in I 300. This date was a marked one, both in the history of the time, as being the great year of Jubilee, and in Dante's career, since it was the year of his Priorate at Florence.

Excerpt from The Earliest Lives of Dante These lives of Dante were written, one within fifty, the other within a hundred and twenty-five years, after the poet's death. Boccaccio was acquainted with at least four persons who, as we have reason to believe, knew Dante in the flesh, and he could draw his information from them as well as from popular tradition. Bruni, on the other hand, who, as he himself says, supplements the work of his predecessor, derives the bulk of his matter from public documents and let ters of Dante, which are not now extant. The value, then, Of their works lies in their nearness to authoritative sources. No other documents Of anything like equal importance as regards the life of Dante have come down to us. Our knowledge of the poet as he moved among men is almost wholly derived from these two lives and from his own works. The facts here presented are not all Of equal significance or trustworthiness. The dream of the poet's mother, the presumed unhappiness Of his marriage, the charge made against him of great licentiousness in youth and manhood, the dates here given of his works, the loss and recovery Of the last thirteen cantos of the C ommedia, have no evidence in their favor other than that which is here presented. But the main features Of his life: the time and place of his birth, his liberal education, his life-long love of Beatrice on earth and in the spirit, his marriage to Gemma Donati, his rise to the highest places in the government of Florence, his banishment and twenty years of exile, and the date and manner of his death, these things, I repeat, we know to be true.

Excerpt from Dante and His Italy The primary purpose of this volume is to present a vivid picture of life in Italy in Dante's day, based, as far as possible, upon original authorities. The author is conscious of omissions, imperfections and inequalities; but he wishes it to be understood that the book is intended to be a sketch rather than a finished picture. Hence no attempt has been made to deal exhaustively with the history or the literature of the period, which are only treated in such a way as to supply what is necessary for the purposes of the general reader. The plan of the work is simple. Opening with a bird's-eye view of Europe at the critical moment of Dante's life, the "ideal date" of his vision, it then starts afresh with the beginning of the century that closes with his death, and traverses the period in ever-narrowing circles: Europe, Italy, Florence, and finally Dante and his literary friends in Florence and his hosts in exile.

Excerpt from A Key to the Time Allusions in the Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri Desiring to know the duration of the action of the "Divina Commedia," I took one of the best known editions and there I found that it is ten days. In order to be quite sure I consulted a second edition which informed me that it is six days. A third one did not agree with either of the others. Rather surprised, because I am deeply convinced that a great poem is not a collection of riddles, I made up my mind to work out the question for myself Thinking that the first condition of success was to form a clear mental picture of the astronomical data constantly referred to by Dante, I did so, and after the necessary simplifications, it finally took the shape of the Dial accompanying this little work. With its help all the time-references seem to me to be clear, perfectly coherent and easily followed. As no diagram can represent things exactly as they are, the reader will see in my note to Purgatorio, Canto iv. lines 61-84, how much my Dial conforms to reality and to what extent it departs from it. This small book contains the Italian text of the time-references, Longfellow's English translation of them, their explanation and the Dial.

Excerpt from The Life of Dante IN the fourteen years which have elapsed since the appearance of Dean Plumptre's Life of Dante a good deal of labour has been bestowed upon the investigation of points connected with the history of the poet and his times; and it may be doubted whether the accomplished author himself would still be prepared to main tain all the positions which his enthusiasm for his subject then led him to take up. At all events it was thought that, another edition being walled for, something might be done in the way of pruning down a little of the some what exuberant conjecture in which the Dean, after the fashion of an earlier school of bio graphers, was apt to indulge. This has been done very sparingly; and a good deal has been left which the present editor is by no means prepared to endorse; but it is hoped that in.
