	De Vulgari Eloquentia
		Cumque de residuis in extremis Ytalie civitatibus neminem dubitare pendamus (et si quis dubitat, illum nulla nostra solutione dignamur), parum restat in nostra discussione dicendum.
		Magistratu quidem sublimatum videtur, cum de tot rudibus Latinorum vocabulis, de tot perplexis constructionibus, de tot defectivis prolationibus, de tot rusticanis accentibus, tam egregium, tam extricatum, tam perfectum et tam urbanum videamus electum, ut Cynus Pistoriensis et amicus eius ostendunt in cantionibus suis.
		Et hinc est quod in regiis omnibus conversantes semper illustri vulgari locuntur; hinc etiam est quod nostrum illustre velut accola peregrinatur et in humilibus hospitatur asilis, cum aula vacemus.

	De vulgari eloquentia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		De vulgari eloquentia (On the Eloquence of Vernacular) is the title of an important essay by Dante Alighieri, written in Latin and initially meant to consist in four books, but aborted after the second.
		It was probably written in the years that preceded Dante's exile, between 1303 and 1305.
		He takes also inspiration from Aristotelian philosophy, and in Dante's work are traceable some references to texts by representatives of what is sometimes referred to as Radical Aristotelianism.

	Dante Alighieri - MSN Encarta
		De Vulgari Eloquentia (Concerning the Common Speech, 1304-1305) is a treatise on the uses and advantages of the Italian language.
		It defends the vernacular as a literary medium, attempts to establish certain criteria of good usage in written Italian, and concludes with a section devoted to criticism of Italian poetry.
		The Latin treatise De Monarchia (On Monarchy), probably written during the period of Henry’s stay in Italy, is an exposition of Dante’s political philosophy, including the need for a supranational Holy Roman Empire, as well as for complete separation of church and state.

		He was one of the founders of the Italian literary language through his use of the vernacular for some of his greatest works.
		Around 1304 he wrote in Latin De Vulgari Eloquentia (Concerning the Common Speech), in which he advocated the use of Italian as a literary language.

	Federazione CEMAT: Servizi \| Profili e repertori \| Opere \| De vulgari eloquentia
		De Vulgari Eloquentia is the title of a book Dante Alighieri wrote to highlight the dignity of vulgar (or the "language of the people"), to uphold the dialect, which he found mature enough to substitute Latin and to become what is now known as the Italian language.
		I am interested in instrumental research (and De Vulgari Eloquentia is rich in all the new techniques I had been developing since the late Seventies) and in building up form, particularly through the continuous transformation of "energy", as I call the tension set up at the beginning of the piece.
		There is also an idea of "sonic perspective", making particular reference to the leading role of the piano; its sound - acting as a "front" of the ensemble's output - is constantly "coloured" by the other instruments, sometimes backing it, sometimes dialectically opposing it.

	Hollander: Barlow II
		What has not occurred to any of these recent discussants is that the facts that the first four paragraphs of the Epistle are almost entirely rhythmically cadenced and that the following ones are considerably less so may be the result of the author's turning from the epistolary style to that of commentary.
		They are all aware of the argument that the change from epistolary to expository prose may be significant, and deal with that problem by comparing the prose of other expository works by Dante (De vulgari Eloquentia, Monarchia) with the longer part of the Epistle (with less than convincing results, as we shall see shortly).
		On the other hand, this turning from the style of epistolary prose to that of commentary (not merely that of other forms of expository writing) seems to me to frame the crucial question, and it is not even raised.

		The Vita Nuova, the De Vulgari Eloquentia and the Convivio may seem minor works when compared to his masterpiece, but they are extremely important in the psychological and artistic development of the Poet, as are his active political life and educational growth among the leaders of his time.
		He writes the De Vulgari in Latin because he directs it to those experts who continue to write in Latin and don’t see the vulgar as a true language capable to express whatever concept in prose or poetry, be it philosophical, political or religious.
		The themes that Dante proposes in the De Vulagari Eloquentia, arms, love and virtue, are all present in the Divina Commedia: from the Breton and Carolingian Cicles to Fredrick II and the crusades, from Boniface VIII to St. Thomas Aquinas, from the love of the earthly fire as its flames reach for the

	LE OPERE DI DANTE
		Pur troppo il trattato, incominciato con bell'impeto dimostrativo, rimase bruscamente interrotto a mezzo il capitolo decimo quarto del libro secondo, proprio quando l'insegnamento dell'espressione d'arte in volgare ("doctrina vulgaris eloquentiae") cominciava a disnodarsi e a concretarsi con dovizia di argomentazioni e di esempi.
		Accanto alla "locutio vulgaris" si pone, ma non sempre, una "locutio secundaria potius artificialis": il linguaggio della cultura, espressione di una determinata civiltà, come svolgimento propriamente umano e principalmente intellettuale, morale (pratico e artistico) e spirituale, nella più generica accezione della parola.
		Il libro De vulgari eloquio non è un "fior di rettorica", quale si costumava allora, un accozzamento di regole astratte cavate dagli antichi; ma è vera critica applicata ai tempi suoi, con giudizi nuovi e sensati.

		The vulgare illustre theory is regarded, after the pioneering work of Maria Corti of 1982, as a theory of poetic language, which allows one to avoid the misconceptions potential in the vague term 'literary language' with its sociolinguistic connotations imposed on a terminology derived from the medieval scholastic tradition.
		As for the 15th-century Italian conception of the Latin language, the main contribution of the Humanists, and a contribution whose significance for the subsequent development of linguistics it would be difficult to overestimate, was the discovery of language as a historical category.

		Thus, it should serve as a model for the formulation of the vernacular.
		The attainment of this idea is the main focus of De Vulgari Eloquentia.

		Questo primo momento definitorio prelude alla trattazione di un problema ulteriore: una volta chiarito il rapporto tra funzione e struttura del linguaggio, ovvero tra la finalità comunicativa e la dualità del segno, si tratta di risalire alle origini della umana locutio tracciando una genealogia degli atti di parola.
		Come nel Convivio, anche nel De vulgari non c’è discrepanza tra metodo teologico e via razionale.

	Reflections on Diglossia
		In medieval Western and Central Europe, for example, Latin was the universal standard, and the written forms of the vernacular were used mainly for popular poetry and stories.
		It is significant that Dante, who may be said to have created literary Italian, wrote his famous essay on the subject, De vulgari eloquentia, in Latin, just as Pompeu Fabra, the codifier of modern Catalan, wrote his first Catalan grammar in Spanish.
		A semistandard may acquire official status and become the language of elementary (but usually not secondary) education, or of parliamentary debate (but not bills); this is the case of Lëtzebuergesch in Luxembourg (which in addition to this semistandard has two standards, French and German) and of Haitian Creole.
