Description

This bilingual edition of the Vita Nuova is the first facing-page translation of this text to be available in over 50 years. Dino S. Cervigni and Edward Vasta have translated Dante's lyrics into line-by-line free verse that seeks to reproduce Dante's lyrical complexities of meaning, form, and style. The three-part introduction covers Dante's life and work, the form and content of the Vita Nuova, and the theory and practice adopted for the translation. A full concordance with glossary of the Italian text and a detailed index to the English translation will assist Dante scholars, college students, and educated readers alike.

Author Biography:

Durante degli Alighieri, commonly known as Dante Alighieri or simply Dante (1265 – 1321), was a major Italian poet of the Late Middle Ages. His Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, is widely considered the most important poem of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in the Italian language. Dino S. Cervigni is professor of Italian at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is the author of numerous books, as well as founder and editor of the journal Annali d’Italianistica. Edward Vasta is professor emeritus of English and a fellow of the Medieval Institute at the University of Notre Dame.
