The Società Dantesca Italiana, thanking again the Ente Cassa di Risparmio in Florence which allowed the realization of this web site with its generous contribution, thanks also the IBM in Italy which offered its advice based on prestigious experiences in this field, the Infogroup S.p.a. which technically realised this work and all those who allowed, with their contribution, to put on line these materials.

First of all, the Società Dantesca Italiana wishes to thank all the directors of the libraries who kindly allowed the full reproductions of the manuscripts they have now and of the manuscripts they will acquire in the future; in particular, Mrs. Antonia Ida Fontana, the director of the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale of Florence, Mrs. Franca Arduini, the director of the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana of Florence, Mrs. Giovanna Lazzi, the director of the Biblioteca Riccardiana of Florence, Mr. Goffredo Dotti, the director of the Biblioteca Braidense of Milan, Mr. Enrico Venturi, the director of the Biblioteca of the Comune and of the Accademia Etrusca of Cortona, Mr. Massimo Baucia, the curator of the Fondo Antico of the Biblioteca Comunale Passerini-Landi of Piacenza, Mrs. Marina Baruzzi, who is in charge of the librarian services of the Biblioteca Comunale of Imola.

We are sorry to point out the absence of the images from the manuscript Trivulziano 1080 and from all the Commedia's codex that are kept in the Biblioteca of the Archivio Storico Civico and Trivulziana of Milan; this absence is due to the onerous request for the copyright by the Town Hall of Milan. However, we thank Mr. Ivano Bordoni, the director of the Biblioteca Trivulziana, for his kindness and his collaboration.

Besides, we thank the Publishing Houses, the authors, the translators, who allowed the use of their Dante's works, in particular we thank the Publishing Houses: Le Lettere of Florence, Riccardo Ricciardi Editore of Milan, Cambridge University Press of London, and Doubleday & Co. of New York which allowed to put on line the Inferno's translation in american language, translated by Robert and Jean Hollander and printed last year.

A particular thanks to Professor Prue James Shaw who collaborated, with competence and great attention, to the english version of this web site.

Finally, the Società Dantesca Italiana is grateful for the important contribution offered by the following florentine Rotary Clubs on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the foundation; their contribution allowed to copy on CD ROM the microfilms of some Commedia's manuscripts; all this material is available in our web site under the heading "Codex". So, we thank the following Clubs and their Presidents for their collaboration during the years 1999-2000:
