Book Synopsis Formulas of Repetition in Dante's Commedia by : Lloyd Howard
Book excerpt: Howard (Hispanic and Italian studies, U. of Victoria) analyzes recurrent linguistic patterns or formulas found throughout Dante's Commedia. When a formula found in more than one place in the text, Howard analyzes the context surrounding these linguistic signposts thereby drawing conclusions about the poem's meaning. Howard's focus is on making connections between formulas which are not in close proximity to each other and have thus remained largely hidden. Distributed in the US by Cornell University Services. c.
