520 _a"Virgilio nel Medio Evo, vol. II" by Domenico Comparetti is a scholarly work written in the late 19th century. This text explores the influence of the ancient Roman poet Virgil during the medieval period, particularly focusing on his role in popular legends and folklore. The book delves into how his legacy transformed and interacted with medieval culture, emphasizing the intertwining of classical elements with emerging romantic notions. At the start of this volume, the author outlines the significant divergence between medieval vernacular poetry and classical poetic forms, arguing that the former wasn't born out of rebellion but rather evolved alongside classical traditions. Comparetti discusses the nature of poetry in the medieval era, noting that while it incorporated elements of ancient literature, it also developed its unique characteristics shaped by religious and cultural contexts. He introduces the concept of Virgil as a towering figure of inspiration, examining the fascinating amalgamation of myth and history surrounding Virgil, particularly within Naples, where he is credited with numerous miraculous deeds and protective qualities. This opening portion sets the stage for a detailed examination of how Virgil's legacy was romanticized and transformed during the medieval period, serving as a foundation for the subsequent chapters.
