Dante's subtle influence on Scève is elucidated in depth for the first time, augmenting the allusions in \u003cem\u003eDélie\u003c\/em\u003e to the \u003cem\u003eCanzoniere\u003c\/em\u003e of Petrarch (Francesco Petrarca). Scève's sequence of dense, epigrammatic \u003cem\u003edizains\u003c\/em\u003e is considered to be an early example, prior to the Pléiade poets, of French Renaissance imitation of Petrarch's vernacular poetry, in a time when \u003cem\u003eimitatio\u003c\/em\u003e was an established literary practice, signifying the poet's participation in a tradition. While the \u003cem\u003eCanzoniere\u003c\/em\u003e is an important source for Scève's \u003cem\u003eDélie\u003c\/em\u003e, both works are part of a poetic lineage that includes Occitan troubadours, Guinizzelli, Cavalcanti, and Dante. The book situates Dante as a relevant predecessor and source for Scève, and examines anew the Petrarchan label for \u003cem\u003eDélie\u003c\/em\u003e. Compelling poetic affinities emerge between Dante and Scève that do not correlate with Petrarch. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781501517976\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScève's Délie\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9781501517976","offer_id":54527212781893,"sku":"9781501517976","price":86.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/7d3d1224-ad1b-4163-b50c-bbb49752aa74.jpg?v=1759382448","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/the-shadow-of-dante-in-french-renaissance-lyric-von-alison-baird-lovell","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
