Vita Nuova (129294) is regarded as Dante's most profound creation. The thirtyone poems in this, the first of his major writings, are linked by a lyrical prose narrative celebrating and debating the subject of love. Composed upon Dante's meeting with Beatrice and the "Lord of Love," it is a love story set to the task of confirming the "new life" this meeting inspired. With a critical introduction and explanatory notes, this is a new translation of a supreme work which has been read variously as biography, religious allegory, and a meditation on poetry itself.About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.
