Review of London Mirror - Saturday 29 November 1873 "The little work comprises a brief account of the numerous historical and mythological persons mentioned in the "Dviina Commedia" and will, therefore, supply a want often felt by the readers of Dante [...] A Considerable amount of research is displayed in the compilation of this volume, which forms and interesting and instructive pendant to Dante's great masterpiece". The Illustrated Review - January 1874 "The whole volume scarcely exceeds the dimensions of a pamphlet, so compactly arranged is the information it contains. Every one who possesses a Dante should have this little biographical guide bound up with it. Even those who read in the original, and posesse the charming Dantesque Vocabulary of M. Blanc [...] will find some few advantages in the present guide." Edition 1345 Number of volumes 1 ShortDescription 3601 --
