Descrizione dell’editore
This essay offers a reading of Decameron 6.9 in light of its Petrarchan analogue, that of the story of Dinus florentinus from the second book of the Rerum Memorandarum Libri (2.60), and examines the history of these two narratives, which, despite their resounding similarities, were independently composed. Ultimately the essay highlights another aspect behind Dec. 6.9; namely, Boccaccio's familiarity with Dino del Garbo's commentary on "Donna me prega," as it relates to the author's relationship to Dante as his commentator. **********
