Indeed, had Dante never written the \u003ci\u003eCommedia\u003c\/i\u003e, he would still be considered the most important writer of the late Middle Ages for the originality and inventiveness of the other works he wrote besides his monumental poem, including the \u003ci\u003eRime\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eFiore\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eDetto d’amore\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eVita nova\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eEpistles\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eConvivio\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eDe vulgari eloquentia\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eMonarchia\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eEgloge\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eQuestio de aqua et terra\u003c\/i\u003e. Each contributor to this volume addresses one of the “other works” by presenting the principal interpretative trends and questions relating to the text, and by focusing on aspects of particular interest. Two essays on the relationship between the “other works” and the issues of philosophy and theology are included. \u003ci\u003eDante’s “Other Works”\u003c\/i\u003e will interest Dantisti, medievalists, and literary scholars at every stage of their career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors: Manuele Gragnolati, Christopher Kleinhenz, Zygmunt G.
