Specialist Notes
This is a very small number of editions compared to previous centuries, which denotes a regressive trend in the fortune of Dante's work, destined to persist until the beginning of the eighteenth century. In this edition, which marks the return to typographic essentiality, being devoid of comments and illustrations, the title of "Vision" appears for the first time in place of Divine Comedy, which means "the complex of things that he saw in his mystical journey" (Scartazzini, Enciclopedia Dantesca, II, 2154). De Batines I, pp. 101-102; Mambelli, n. 53.
