1859, “DANTE (Durante, by contraction Dante) DEGLI ALIGHIERI”, in George Ripley, Charles A[nderson] Dana, editors, The New American Cyclopædia: A Popular Dictionary of General Knowledge, volumes VI (Cough–Education), New York, N.Y.: D. Appleton & Company, 346 & 348 Broadway; London: 16 Little Britain, →OCLC, page 255, column 1:The treatise De Vulgari Eloquio. Though we have doubts whether we possess this book as Dante [Alighieri] wrote it, inclining rather to think that it is a copy in some parts textually exact, in others an abstract, there can be no question either of its great glossological value, or that it conveys the opinions of Dante.
