Summary

Opera del Vocabolario Italiano (OVI) contains Italian vernacular texts, most of which are dated prior to 1375. The works include early masters of Italian literature like Dante, Petrarch, and Boccaccio, as well as lesser-known texts by poets, merchants, and medieval chroniclers. The OVI database was created to aid in the compilation of an historical dictionary of the Italian language, the Tesoro della lingua italiana delle origini.
