Il "modus digressivus" nella Divina Commedia - Hardcover

by Sergio Corsi (Author)

Original study on the usefulness of the digressivus, one of the modi tractandi in Dante's Commedia, seen as a calculated, challenging, and significant feature of the text. This book shows how well integrated the digressions are into Dante's discourse, both from rhetorical (dispositio and elocutio) and poetical (themes and fabula) points of view.
