Quale modello per la Vita Nova?
abstract
The author reflects on the way in which the various literary models highlighted by critics are compatible with the structure of the Vita Nova. Further, he suggests that it is worth considering the influence that the layout of the manuscripts of those works intended for study may have exerted on Dante’s prosimetrum.
