Abstract

Bruno Nardi was a distinguished and influential scholar on Dante’s works and medieval and Renaissance philosophy. Born in Tuscany in 1884, Nardi studied in Belgium (Leuven) and Italy, where he taught in high school and university. In his extensive and often pioneering research, Nardi reevaluated Dante’s relationship with his philosophical sources (especially Siger of Brabant and Thomas Aquinas), reassessed the development of Aristotelian tradition(s) between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and revealed and carefully analyzed unknown manuscript sources.
