These glosses suggest that the poem probably functioned as a teaching text, owing to its riddle-like lines and the numerous allusions on which the glosses focus.

Title A name given to the resource Letteratura europea e medioevo volgare Description An account of the resource Medieval vernacular literature, which inherits and deeply re-elaborates themes and modes of Latin culture, is at the origin of "European" literary production. Italy followed soon after France in establishing a vernacular literary tradition, anchored by the great personalities and the artistic achievements of Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio. The new vernacular works adapt topoi, characters, genres, etc. of classical tradition, modifying some fundamental images and concepts such as the cavern, the temple, the labyrinth, and, especially important, fame. The vitality and impact of Italian medieval culture are evident in that culture's ongoing influence, from Chaucer to twentieth-century poets (Pound and Eliot) and beyond.

In TC, the interpolated songs, dreams, prayers, and letters may be analyzed as elements that comprise, in part, this "formal cause." The letters often follow the prescriptions of the contemporaneous "artes dictaminis." Letters were considered the repository of the spoken word, and therefore we should not imagine that they would cause any problem in a poem that was doubtless read aloud. They serve to shed light on the characters who composed them, or respond to them in other ways.
