Information
Specialist Notes
The name of the editor, Piero da Figino, appears in the colophon of this incunabulum. Little is known about this character. We only learn that he belonged to the order "of the Minors" and was "Master of Theology and excellent Preacher". Scholars have discussed whether he was Lombard or Tuscan and whether he was the author of the hand decoration and the annotations of another copy of this edition, today at the Casa di Dante in Rome. The volume closes with a series of Dante songs.
