He has certainly been noticed by many writers commenting on Dante and the Inferno over the years. The encounter with Fucci and the snakes is one of the most grotesque episodes in Dante's poem, and a showcase for his "gothic" qualities, his ability to create weird and almost surreal metamorphoses and have them look real. Also, Fucci is one of the most rough-spoken characters in Dante's work, with a deliberately glaringly vulgar and foul tone of voice. 192.121.232.253 (talk) 10:03, 26 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
