Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Britain´s Tribute to Dante in Literature and Art: A Chronological Record of 540 Years (C. 1380-1920) This Record is the outcome of notes taken during the last five-and-twenty years, primarily for the purposes of several projected works, of which the following have been published: Chronological List of English Translations from Dante, from Chaucer to the Present Day (Boston, U.S.A., 1906); Dante in English Literature from Chaucer to Cary (2 vols., London, 1909); and Dante in English Art: A Chronological Record of Representations by English Artists of Subjects from the Works of Dante, or connected with Dante (Boston, U.S.A., 1920); besides sundry articles in various English and foreign periodicals. In the preparation of the first two of the above works I availed myself of the admirable Catalogue of the Cornell Dante Collection (2 vols., Ithaca, N.Y., 1898-1900), compiled for the late Professor Willard Fiske by Mr. T. W. Koch; and, to a limited extent, of the work on Dante and the English Poets from Chaucer to Tennyson (New York, 1904) by Professor Oscar Kuhns. My obligations to these volumes are hereby once again acknowledged. For information and references supplementary to my own resources I have to thank numerous friends and correspondents, among whom should be mentioned Professor H. Littledale, of Cardiff, Professor A. Farinelli, of Turin (in a lengthy review of Dante in English Literature in the Bullettino delta Sqcietà Dantesca Italiana), Mr. F. G. Stokes, and Mr. H. St. J. Brooks. Certain of the entries in the Record may perhaps be regarded as trivial; but, as I had occasion to observe in a similar connexion in the preface to my Dante in English Literature, such items - trivial though they be - have a value of their own, as indications of the trend of current opinion with regard to Dante a straw will show which way the wind blows.
