Resumen de Matière Troyenne et exégèse dantesque

Arianna Punzi

• This paper studies the presence of the Trojan matter in the medieval exegesis of Dante Alighieri's "Commedia". The result is a rather complex tradition which, beyond classical sources, was also enriched by the vernacular tradition, attesting the exceptional omnipresence of this matter in the Italian peninsule in the Middle Ages.
