| Abstract | |
This reasearch proposes an in depth analysis of Convivio a work which Dante Alighieri wrote in the first years of the XIV century in order to show its importance in the Dantesque work and in the Italian literature. In a first moment, some problems concerning the work are presented, such as the language of its composition, the odes to philosophy as mans saviour and the battle against common sense in respect to the nobility of the individual. We chose to give privilege to the authors perspective, which builds the text from a self-comment to three of his doctrinal songs composed in his youth and brought back to the public eye in his first years of political exhile. In a second moment, this work presents a full translation of Convivio, always aiming at keeping Dantes supposed voice in most part of the matters stated above. Since this is the Dantesque text that brings more discussions as far as its establishment is concerned, the translation is carried out from the critical edition of Franca Brambilla Ageno (1995). However, notes were written to show the main textual variations defended by other students of Dantes work and editors, especially in the XIX and XX centuries. Therefore, the present work aims at suggesting the importance of the philological discussion in the field of the Dantesque studies carried out in Brazil, which is essential due to the absence of original statements that confirm the real intention of Dantes words.
