“SOMMO POETA” - 700 YEARS SINCE HIS DISAPPEARANCE
Abstract
Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), often simply called Dante, was an Italian poet, writer and philosopher of Tuscany. His famous work, “Divine Comedy”, originally called Comedia and later christened “Divine” by Giovanni Boccaccio (1), is widely considered one of the most important works of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in Italian; thus, we can say that the work “Divine Comedy” is the nucleus around which the Italian language crystallized, as we know it today (2).
