Summary: "Studies in the Poetry of Italy, Part II. Italian" by Oscar Kuhns is a scholarly examination of the development of Italian literature, likely written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the origins of Italian literature and the notable writers who shaped it, particularly emphasizing the foundational influences of poets like Dante and Boccaccio, while also acknowledging the literary traditions that preceded them. At the start of the book, Kuhns outlines the relatively late emergence of a distinct Italian literature, which did not properly begin until the 13th century, contrasting it with earlier literary developments in France. He explores the influence of Latin and the predecessors of Italian poetry, highlighting the role of troubadours and the contributions of various poets in different regions of Italy. The opening chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of key literary figures and movements, leading to a greater appreciation for the richness of Italy's literary heritage.
