italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies Salve tutti Perhaps this would be a good time for a new subject. I am looking for any work which puts some flesh on the bones of the time in 1302 when Dante was in Siena on his return from his failed embassy to Boniface and learned of his condemnation. Scholarly work, of course, would be best but, I would also be interested in any well done speculation or historical fiction.
