Chiose alla cantica dell'Inferno di Dante Alighieri pubblicate per la prima volta in corretta lezione con riscontri e fac-simili di codici, e precedute da una indagine critica

Listeners are invited to explore a recently restored medieval commentary that once lay hidden in the archives of Florence. Written by Jacopo Alighieri, the son of the poet who created the Divine Comedy, the notes focus on the first cantica, the Inferno, and offer a rare glimpse of how the work was understood by someone who may have heard it directly from his father. The edition presents the text in a carefully corrected version, accompanied by facsimile pages and a scholarly introduction that explains its manuscript history.

The commentary weaves together personal recollections of exile, references to contemporary patrons, and detailed observations of the poem’s allegorical structure. Jacopo’s voice is both devotional and analytical, shedding light on the early reception of Dante’s vision and revealing interpretive choices that differ from later traditions. For anyone fascinated by the birth of Italian literary criticism, this recording opens a window onto a forgotten dialogue between father and son and the vibrant intellectual climate of the early fourteenth century.
