William John Borlase-Warren-Venables-Vernon (1834 – 12 November 1919) was a British Dante scholar. He was mostly known for publishing previously unpublished works, being the first to publish Benvenuto Rambaldi da Imola's commentary on Dante's Divine Comedy.[2]

Early life and education

Vernon was born in 1834. He spent some time in Italy with his father, George Venables-Vernon, before moving back to England to attend Eton College. He then attended Christ Church, Oxford as a commoner, but left in 1855 to get married before he could finish his degree. He returned to finish it twenty years later.[2]

Works

In 1887, Vernon published Rambaldi da Imola's Latin commentary to Dante's Divine Comedy. The commentary was originally written around 1390, and had previously remained unpublished.[3]

In 1917, Vernon published an autobiography titled Recollections of Seventy-Two Years.[3]

Personal life

Vernon was a Freemason who married Agnes Lucy Boileau, daughter of John Boileau, 1st Baronet.[2]
