Présentation de l'éditeur

The Middle A ges were dying whenD ante was born. The Crusades and the long strife between the Popes andE mperors were wellnigh ended. The Schoolmen had culminated inT homas A quinas. Feudalism was in its wane. Simon de Montfort in England and the cities of the Continent were already asserting the cause of liberty. It was in the decay of a great age thatD ante stood forth as its spokesman and poet. To choose any one date as the end of a great historic period must always seem arbitrary, but, so far as Dante is concerned, theM iddle A ges may be said to have terminated within a year of his birth.
