Excerpt from Studies in Dante Second Series Miscellaneous Essays The relation of the present collection of Studies to that which was published three years ago is that of another Series rather than that of a Second Volume. I have endeavoured to make them as far as possible independent of one another, since some of the various subjects here treated of may (it is hoped) have an interest for many who would not care to purchase a volume entirely devoted to a subject so special and technical as the use by Dante of Scriptural and Classical authors.' I do not think the former volume will ever be found necessary merely for the intelligibility of anything that occurs in this, though I have often referred to the earlier series for the fuller discussion or illustration of points which arise here. I trust therefore that each series will prove to be sufficiently complete in itself to be used as an entirely separate work. I believe I have personally verified every quotation made whenever it was possible. Otherwise the authority from whom it was derived is given. But one cannot always acknowledge the source to which the first suggestion of a quotation or reference may have been due. It is often impossible to trace this after some lapse of time, since in notes made for private use this is not generally recorded. My endeavour, however, has been to acknowledge this also whenever I have been able to do so. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
