La Vita Nuova full translation into English was by Joseph Garrow and it was published in 1846. "La Vita Nuova" contains 42 brief chapters (31 for Guglielmo Gorni) with commentaries on 25 sonnets, one "ballata", and four canzoni; one canzone is left unfinished, interrupted by the death of Beatrice Portinari, Dante's lifelong love.
