Written in 1303-05, when Dante was in political exile from his native Florence, De vulgari eloquentia addresses the problem of how to raise the Italian language to the status of Latin in the esteem of the literate public. It is the fullest and most important document concerning vernacular writing in the Middle Ages—indeed, the earliest work of literary criticism dealing with a vernacular language. Marianne Shapiro offers the most detailed discussion in English of De vulgari eloquentia, whose form and spirit reflect Dante's political unrest and alienation. Hers is the first work in any language to analyze and explain the meaning of the grammatical and rhetorical terminology that Dante used in his treatise. And because her translation—included here—is based on a thorough exegesis of that terminology, it will be recognized as definitive. Shapiro’s translation will be of special interest to medievalists and to serious readers of The Divine Comedy. In a later section, she considers the less precursors of Dante as a writer of the “Romance idiom” and their influence on him. Then she concentrates on the least studied aspects of the treatise in order to reveal its profound affiliations with late medieval grammatical investigations—it is possible to see in Dante “a grammarian beneath the poet.” Her conclusion summarizes the apparent textual contradictions and the significance. Thus, this book provides a thorough historical, philosophical, and rhetorical context for De vulgari eloquentia and a new English translation that is enriched by that scholarship.

De vulgari eloquentia, written by Dante in the early years of the fourteenth century, is the only known work of medieval literary theory to have been produced by a practising poet, and the first to assert the intrinsic superiority of living, vernacular languages over Latin. Its opening consideration of language as a sign-system includes foreshadowings of twentieth-century semiotics, and later sections contain the first serious effort at literary criticism based on close analytical reading since the classical era. Steven Botterill here offers an accurate Latin text and a readable English translation of the treatise, together with notes and introductory material, thus making available a work which is relevant not only to Dante's poetry and the history of Italian literature, but to our whole understanding of late medieval poetics, linguistics, and literary practice.

Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) was an Italian poet, writer, and philosopher. His 'La Comedia' (Comedy) or 'La Divina Comedia' (Divine Comedy) is considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in the Italian language. Along with Giovanni Boccaccio and Francesco Peterarch, they are often referred to as the fathers of Italian literature, or the fathers of the Italian language. They set the stage for the flourishing of vernacular Italian literature that followed. At a time when most poetry was written in Latin, Dante's 'De Vulgari Eloquentia' (On the Eloquence of the Vernacular) discusses the relationship between Latin and the vernacular languages, searching for an 'illustrious' vernacular in the Italian region. The second book is an analysis of the structure of the canto or song, a literary genre developed in the Sicilian School of poetry. He presents an argument for giving vernacular language the same dignity and legitimacy as Latin. In his opinion language was not something static, but something that evolves and needs historical contextualisation. Though it as originally meant to consist of four books, it ends abruptly in the middle of the second book. Dante's Medieval Latin frequently makes use of the first person plural 'we' instead of 'I', and frequently refers to people in the Italian peninsula as 'Latins' rather than Italians which was still commonplace at the time. This is further evidence that the 'Latin' identity remained due to the Holy Roman Empire and Roman Catholic Christianity. The text is presented in the original Medieval Latin, with a literal word-for-word line-by-line translation, and a Modern English translation, all side-by-side. In this way, it is possible to see and feel how Medieval Latin works. Also included is a word list with 3693 Medieval Latin words translated in to English, and 3007 English words translated into Medieval Latin. This book is designed to be of use and interest to anyone with a passion for the Latin language, medieval history, or languages and history in general. Translated by Matthew Leigh Embleton Matthew Leigh Embleton is a language and history enthusiast, musician, composer, and producer living in London. www.matthewleighembleton.co.uk
