“His rearrangement of the text represents a great improvement over the original form. While he has employed his privilege of annotating very sparingly, such notes as he has attached are uniformly helpful.” Alvin S. Johnson.

“To look at Italy through the eyes of Dante himself, and having looked to realise her for others, as she appeared to the poet during his sojourn upon earth, has been the chief aim of the author of this new study.... He begins with a rapid sketch of the state of Europe as a whole at what he calls the ‘critical moment of Dante’s life, the ideal state of his vision,’ passing on to concentrate his attention first on Italy, then on Florence, and finally on Dante himself, tracing his literary antecedents, calling up one after another the possibilities of his contemporary authors and of his hosts during the weary wanderings of his exile, the narrative terminating with an eloquent account of the last days at Ravenna, and of the impression caused by the news that the great genius had passed away.”—Int. Studio.
