Author: Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri

This book is in Italian.

Dante’s Rime: 118 lyric poems (sonnets, ballate and canzoni) in the sections of the Wikisource edition: the poems of the Vita nuova, other poems of the same time, the tenzone with Forese Donati, the allegorical and doctrinal poems, other love poems and exchanges, the “stony” poems for Pietra, and the poems of exile. The replies of Dante’s correspondents (Cecco Angiolieri, Forese Donati, Dante da Maiano and others) are given in italics with the editor’s heading. The Italian is the it.wikisource text, one verse to a line. The doubtful poems (rime dubbie) are not on the source and not included.

Source: All 118 poems of the index, in the Wikisource order, as verse with hard breaks; verse-number anchors, wiki templates and notes are dropped. The editor’s rubrics (tenzone attributions) stay. Not included: the rime dubbie, which the source does not carry, and English (Lyell 1835, Rossetti), whose canon does not match this numbering.
