Esplorando Dante e la Commedia

by Montanari Paolo
Esplorando Dante e la Commedia

An exploration into Dante’s world in a popular spirit. A journey through critical and bibliographical citations, covering passages from the Comedy and its influence on the art world. Dante is a central protagonist in the European and international literary and cultural panorama. The aim of this essay on Dante is to provide a contemporary overview of Dante Alighieri’s thought and work. An exploration into Dante’s world with a popular spirit: his relations with Florence, poetry, politics; Beatrice; the links that the exiled Dante forged in his long pilgrimage, leaving precious testimonies. There is also a comparison between Dante, Petrarch and Boccaccio, and the influence that the Divine Comedy has exerted, and continues to exert, on the Arts: the role of Dante’s characters in the collective imagination of cinema, theatre, the visual arts and the artistic expressions of poets and writers such as Pound and Borges. A complex and fascinating journey, enriched by Dante’s life, an overview of The Comedy and an exhaustive bibliography.
