DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Dante Studies The articles and notes collected in this volume are reprinted (for the most part with additions and corrections) from various English, American, French, and Italian publications, as a tribute, on the occasion of the world-wide celebration in the present year of the sixth centenary of the death of Dante (September 14, 1321), on the part of one who has for many years been engaged in following, in the words of the motto non the title-page, 'dietro alle poste delle care piante' of 'l'altissimo Poeta'. Eight of these articles were originally published in theModem Language Review three in the Athenaeum; two in Literature; one in the Quarterly Review; one in The Times; one in the 9 Annual Reports of the Cambridge (U.S.A.) Dante Society (Boston); eight in the Bulletin Italicn (Bordeaux); one in Romania (Paris); one in fetudes Italiennes (Paris); two in the Giornale Storico della Letteratura Ltaliana (Turin); one in the Bullettino della Societa Dantesca Ltaliana (Florence); and Yone in the volume (Da Dante al Leopardi) published in honours) of Professor Michele Scherillo (Milan, 1904). It is hoped that the articles, half of which are now for the first time published in England, will be found acceptable to students in their present form, as a continuation of the series published some years ago in my volume of Dante Studies and Researches.
