Vita Nuova, XIX. Intorno a una traduzione di Joan Maragall

Abstract

The rediscovery of the manuscript containing a translation by Maragall of Vita Nuova XIX sheds new light on Maragall's Danteism and helps in clarifying certain obscure points in a version published by the journal Lletra, which never formed part of the Obres Completes. The current study places Maragall's version within the environment of the Catalan pre- Raphaelite movement, examines the textual solutions put forward by the Catalan writer and sets out proposals for editing the work.
