'All English-speaking students of Dante will be immensely grateful to Prue Shaw for her splendid edition and translation of Dante's Latin treatise on world government. This is by far the best English translation of the Monarchia ...' Italian Studies
This is the first new translation for forty years of a fascinating work of political theory, until now only available in academic libraries. Dante's Monarchy addresses the fundamental question of what form of political organization best suits human nature; it embodies a political vision of startling originality and power, and illuminates the intellectual interests and achievements of one of the world's great poets. Prue Shaw's translation is accompanied by a full introduction and notes, which provide a complete guide to the text, and places Monarchy in the context of Dante's life and work.
