Summary

The most useful reference book at present is The Dante Encyclopedia, ed. Richard Lansing (New York: Garland. 2000). For those who know Italian the Enciclopedia dantesca, ed. Umberto Bosco (Rome: Istituto dell'Enciclopedia Italiana, 1970-78) is a valuable resource. The journal Dante Studies publishes a yearly “American Dante Bibliography.”
