Excerpt from Dante at Ravenna: A Study
Yet in his quiet exile at Ravenna Dante is perhaps not so well known to the student of his life and works as when a citizen of Florence in the early and more stirring periods of his life. But many a passage, both in the Divina Com media' and in his minor works, tends to show how much his mind was influenced by the place of his latest sojourn upon earth.
