Everything about Corso Donati totally explained
Corso Donati was a leader of the
Black Guelph faction in 13th- and early 14th- century
Florence, one of twelve prominent Florentine citizens summoned by the Pope in 1304 in an attempt to bring peace to the city.
Donati's sister
Gemma Donati was the wife of the great
poet,
Dante Alighieri. Despite their family connection through Dante's marriage to Gemma, Corso had a large amount of animosity towards Dante, presumably because of Dante's professed love for
Beatrice Portinari. This was an animosity that only mounted with time as Corso Donati was one of the chief members behind the exiling of
Dante Alighieri.
Donati is discussed prominently in
Niccolò Machiavelli's
History of Florence (chapter V).
