"Convivio," written by Dante Alighieri, is a philosophical treatise that explores the nature of love and knowledge. The work is structured as a banquet, where Dante uses the metaphor of a meal to discuss various themes, including the relationship between philosophy and poetry. It consists of a series of essays that interpret selected poems, revealing Dante's thoughts on morality, virtue, and the pursuit of wisdom. Ultimately, "Convivio" reflects Dante's desire to elevate the soul through intellectual and spiritual nourishment.

No, Dante's masterpiece "The Divine Comedy" is not about two clowns in a medieval circus. Instead, it is an epic poem that explores themes of morality, the afterlife, and the soul's journey toward God. The narrative follows Dante's journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, guided by the Roman poet Virgil and later by Beatrice, representing divine love. The work is a profound allegory of spiritual redemption rather than a comedic tale centered around clowns.
There were a large number of medieval poets, including Hildegard of Bingen, Geoffrey Chaucer, Walter von der Vogelweide, Chrétien de Troyes, Marie de France, Christine de Pizan, Dante Alighieri, and Petrarch. There were so many, I am not sure how a complete list could be made.

These include 'Beowulf,' possibly the oldest major work of Old English; the Song of Roland, the oldest extant work of French literature; the medieval German romance 'Parzival'; the works of Dante, who invented the interlocking three-line rhyme scheme and daringly used vernacular in his 'Divine Comedy'; Petrarch's 'Il canzoniere'; Boccaccio's 'Decameron; 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight'; and several others. The Middle Ages also saw what is most likely the first English book written by a woman: 'Revelations of Divine Love,' by Julian of Norwich.
