First printed in late August 1481, Cristoforo Landino's Comento on Dante's Comedy marks a pivotal moment in the Florentine cult of Dante, in commentary literature upon his poem, and in the book market for printed 'Dantes'. It is not surprising therefore that, in recent years, Landino's commentary has been studied in some depth and from a variety of points of view. Critical attention has been focused most closely upon the lengthy and ideologically charged proemio to the Comento as well as upon individual topics of interest such as the commentary's socio-political context, its allegorizing readings, its treatment of linguistic matters and relationship to vernacular humanism, and its Platonizing and Neoplatonizing preoccupations
