Third and last edition of the Commedia published in the seventeenth century. The volume is printed in the compact ‘long 24mo' format invented by Alessandro Paganini. From a textual point of view the edition follows the Venetian Commedia of 1613, apart from the title: in place of the title La Visione used in the Vicenza edition of 1613 the printer Misserini prefers the traditional title of Divina Commedia. Dante's poem is accompanied by the arguments and allegories by Lodovico Dolce and the Tavola de vocaboli più oscuri usati da Dante, taken from the Giolito Commedia appeared in 1555.
