If it were the Spring of 2011, I probably would have done it faster, but then in the Spring of 2011, I hadn't gone through a crash course of Italian and was working through the expansive vocabulary of German.
I essentially wrote the review in pieces and then re-read to modify things based on later reading, though I'm sure there are still places where it doesn't make a whole lot of sense because I did end up cutting and pasting at the end and just wanted to be done with it.

If you're looking for a bilingual edition, the Princeton Bollingen series is supposedly excellent.

I enjoyed reading this, and even stopped to look up Ugolino della Gherardesca on wikipedia. *NM*
