The work delves into the literary history of Italy, examining the evolution and influence of literature from ancient times through various cultural shifts, including the impact of ecclesiastical literature and the Barbarians' invasions." The opening of this work sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of the decline of classical literature in Italy, tracing its roots back to the time of Constantine's reign. Ginguené discusses how the transfer of the capital from Rome to Constantinople, coupled with the fall of the Western Empire and subsequent Barbarian invasions, led to a significant erosion of literary culture. He argues that the gradual decay began even before these events and elaborates on the role of ecclesiastical literature in this context. The opening deals with themes of decline, societal structure, and the historical significance of literary works throughout Italian history, establishing an academic tone that promises an in-depth analysis of Italy's literary heritage.
