della Pressa
Blessed one mentioned in Paradiso XVI among those whom Cacciaguida indicates as already part of the celestial host. The only textual datum available is the phrase «Quel de la Pressa».
Profile
The figure is attested solely by the verse «Quel de la Pressa sapeva già come» (Paradiso XVI, v. 100), inserted in the passage in which Cacciaguida enumerates other blessed Florentine citizens. The authorized notes provided concern exclusively Canto I of the Paradiso and offer no identifying elements regarding the della Pressa family, nor their role, nor any historical biography. In the absence of further verse-anchors or notes documenting a specific identity, the entry limits itself to recording the Paradiso mention as a collective figure, refraining from any genealogical, professional, or chronological attribution not supported by the admitted sources.
