Specialist Notes
Reproduction of the Landiano Codex 190, believed to be the oldest manuscript of the Divine Comedy with a certain date (1336), currently preserved at the Passerini-Landi Municipal Library in Piacenza. Along with the Divine Comedy, it also contains Dante's "The Sweet Rhymes of Love That I Usually Sing," several sonnets by Guittone d'Arezzo, and several chapters by Bosone da Gubbio and Iacopo Alighieri, which provide a sort of summary of the work. The colophon reveals the identity of the copyist, Antonio da Fermo, who states that the work was commissioned by Beccario Beccaria.
