Dr Fell might hold in his hand--
:28:04
his non-Italian hand--
:28:06
a note from Dante Alighieri himself.
:28:08
But would he recognize it?
I think not.
:28:12
Gentlemen, you have examined him
in medieval Italian...
:28:16
and I will not deny
that his language is admirable...
:28:18
for a straniero.
:28:20
But is he acquainted
with the personalities...
:28:24
of the pre-Renaissance Firenze?
:28:26
I think not.
:28:28
What if he came upon a note
in the Capponi library...
:28:31
say from Guido di Cavalcanti?
:28:33
Would he recognize that?
I think not.
:28:37
They're still arguing?
:28:42
Sogliato wants the job
for his nephew.
:28:45
But the scholars seem satisfied
with the temporary guy they appointed.
:28:49
If he's such an expert on Dante...
:28:52
Let him lecture on Dante
to the Studiolo.
:28:55
- Let him face them if he can.
- I look forward to it.
:28:59
Very well. On the 14th.
:29:18
Dr Fell?
:29:21
Chief Inspector Rinaldo Pazzi
of the questura.
:29:24
Commendatore,
how can I be of service?
:29:27
Sorry. I'm investigating
the disappearance...
:29:30
of your predecessor,
Signor di Bonaventura.
:29:34
- I was wondering if--
- "Predecessor" implies I have the job.
:29:37
Unfortunately, I don't.
Not yet, though I am hopeful.
:29:40
They are letting me look after
the library for a stipend.
:29:46
The officers who first checked...
:29:48
didn't find any sort of farewell
or suicide note.
:29:52
I was wondering if you--
:29:53
If I come across anything in the Capponi
library stuffed in a drawer or book...
:29:57
I'll call you at once.
