Excerpt from The Romances of Chivalry in Italian Verse: Selections
Dante as one of the greatest geniuses of all time, but we who love Italian literature as a whole cannot but deplore the narrowness of college curricula that are so framed as to ignore the creations of the period of the Renaissance.

To acquaint themselves more fully with the works of the poets to whom they are here introduced.
