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 The Early Life of Dante Alighieri: Together With the Original in Parallel Pages Love, it embraces the astronomical system of Ptolemy together with the belief in the influence of the planets on the various conditions of humanity as calculated by the ancient Astrologers - Dante has been reproached especially in Germany, but also in England, with a want of tenderness, and notwithstanding the exquisite pathos of certain descriptions in the Divine Commedia (too well known to be here singled out), notwithstanding, every possible allowance on account of the nature of the subject on which he treats, many continue to entertain such an opinion; it appears to me, however, impossible to rise up from a perusal of the Win mtova without feeling, that in proportion as the mind of Dante was more powerful than that of other men so was his heart susceptible of tender emotions in a degree rarely to be found in others. This little history of his first love, with an analysis of his feelings from the commencement to the tragical conclusion, leaves not a doubt upon the mind, that with a supernatural degree of Intellect be united a heart of the most sensitive materials.

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.
