Excerpt from The New Life of Dante Alighieri The New Life. I. In that part of the book of my memory before which little can be read is found a rubric which sayeth, Incipit Vita Nova. Under which rubric I find the words written which it is my intention to copy into this little book, - and if not all of them, at least their meaning. II. Nine times now, since my birth, had the heaven of light turned almost to the same point in its own gyration, when first appeared before mine eyes the glorious Lady of my mind, who was called Beatrice by many who knew not wherefore she was so called.

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 Dante Alighieri This little book lays no claim to originality, and makes no pretence to learning or research. It is addressed rather to the so-called general reader than to the serious Dante student. The narrative is taken largely from the pages of Villani, Boccaccio, and from other similar sources. The reader will find fiction (at any rate from the critics point of view) as well as fact in these pages, but he will, I hope, be at no loss to distinguish between the two. The legends and traditions which hang around the name of a great personality are a not unimportant element in bis biography, and may sometimes serve to place him as well as, if not better than, the more sober estimates of the serious historian. I have not, therefore, thought it outside the scope of this sketch of Dante's life to include some of the anecdotes which at an early date began to he associated with bis name, though certain of them demonstrably belong to a far earlier period.

Excerpt from A Biography of Dante Alighieri: Set Forth as His Life JourneyFirst, then, it behooves us to select from this fragment one short phrase for immediate use the Journey of our Life - the two nouns being capitalized for a little added stress (el Cammin di nostra Vita). Such is Dante's title of his own biography, as he writes it down in the opening line of his most distinctive book; and so we shall follow closely his example, in naming this record of his career Dante's Life Journey. Let it also be here noted that this title appears to have been given by the poet to his work after its completion during his last years (1320 Herein he would seem with the prime stroke of his pen to hit not only the exact designation but also the germinal conception of his masterpiece. Thus we may like wise deem the foregoing seven Italian words as his own suggestive introduction, since they echo to us' at the start the first musical line of his far singing spiritual autobiography.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

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 Divina Commedia of Dante Alighieri The twdve years which have elapsed since the first publication of my work have been fruitful in Dante literature. I may instance, in particular, Mr. Vernon's instructive Readings in the Inferno and the Purgatorio - soon, I hope, to be followed by those in the Paradiso Dr. Moore's valuable Studies in the Divina Commedia, and his Oxford Dante; Mr. Toynbee's excellent Index thereto, and his no less excellent Dante Dictionary; and Mr. Gardner's Dante's Ten Heavens; remarkable for its insight into the Theology of the Mystics, and its exposition of the functions attributed in Dante's time to the several Orders of the Angelic Hierarchies. To turn from our own country - the Italian Dante Society, the Giornale Dantesco, and such scholars as (to name but two out of many) Signori Del Lungo and Scherillo, have made important contributions to the study of the times, life and works of the divine Poet Dr. Scartazzini has conferreda boon on Students by his Enciclopedia Dantesca; and we are indebted to America for Mr. Fay's most useful concordance of the Divina Commedia.
