c. 1307, Dante Alighieri, “Trattato primo, Capitolo I [First Treatise, Chapter 1]”, in Convivio [The Banquet], Florence: Le Monnier, published 1964:Dentro da l’uomo possono essere due difetti e impediti: l’uno da la parte del corpo, l’altro da la parte de l’anima. […] Da la parte de l’anima è quando la malizia vince in essa, sì che si fa seguitatrice di viziose delettazioni, ne le quali riceve tanto inganno che per quelle ogni cosa tiene a vile.- Within man there exist two kinds of defects which impede him, one pertaining to the body, the other to the soul. That pertaining to the soul occurs when malice overcomes it, so that it becomes the follower of vicious pleasures, by which it is so deceived that because of them it degrades the worth of all things.
