Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Question of the Water and of the Land My apology for making a translation of this treatise into English is that no one else has done it. Of all the authentic works of Dante this alone remains untranslated. Professor Longhena, many years ago, translated it into Italian; besides that, I know of no one else who has put it into any modern language. And yet it has a peculiar interest apart from the fact that it is undoubtedly authentic. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
