About Dante Alighieri
Dante Alighieri (c. 30 May 1265 – 13 September 1321), most likely baptized Durante di Alighiero degli Alighieri, was an Italian poet, writer and philosopher. His Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia) and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, is widely considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary work in the Italian language.

"[Sonetto XXI]
"L’amaro lagrimar che voi faceste,
oi occhi miei, così lunga stagione,
facea lagrimar l’altre persone
de la pietate, come voi vedeste.
Ora mi par che voi l’obliereste,
s’io fosse dal mio lato sì fellone,
ch’i’ non ven disturbasse ogne cagione,
membrandovi colei cui voi piangeste.
La vostra vanità mi fa pensare,
e spaventami sì, ch’io temo forte
del viso d’una donna che vi mira.
Voi non dovreste mai, se non per morte,
la vostra donna, ch’è morta, obliare".
Così dice ’l meo core, e poi sospira."
