Dante Lirico. Saggi Sulle Rime by Marco Grimaldi

Saggi sulle rime

A collection of critical essays that examines Dante’s lyric poetry through close readings of his short poems, exploring their formal features, metrics and rhetorical devices while situating them in the medieval Italian and Occitan lyric traditions; the book traces thematic motifs such as love, ethical reflection and poetic identity, considers manuscript transmission and philological issues, and reassesses Dante’s contribution to the development of vernacular poetic forms and their reception by later readers.
