The Early Lives of Dante is a book written by Giovanni Boccaccio, an Italian writer and poet. The book is a biographical account of the early life of Dante Alighieri, one of the most famous Italian poets of all time. Boccaccio's work is comprised of three distinct parts, each of which offers a unique perspective on Dante's life.The first part of the book is a brief biography of Dante's life, from his birth in Florence in 1265 to his exile from the city in 1302. Boccaccio describes Dante's early education, his involvement in Florentine politics, and his early literary works. This section also covers Dante's marriage to Gemma Donati and the birth of his children.The second part of the book is a collection of anecdotes and stories about Dante's life, as told by his contemporaries. Boccaccio draws on a variety of sources, including letters, diaries, and other historical documents, to paint a vivid picture of Dante's personality and character.The third and final part of the book is Boccaccio's own commentary on Dante's life and work. In this section, Boccaccio offers his own analysis of Dante's poetry, as well as his thoughts on the political and social context in which Dante lived.Overall, The Early Lives of Dante is a fascinating and comprehensive account of the life of one of Italy's most celebrated poets.
