Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Dante written by Manuele Gragnolati and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Dante contains forty-four specially written chapters that provide a thorough and creative reading of Dante's oeuvre. It gathers an intergenerational and international team of scholars encompassing diverse approaches from the fields of Anglo-American, Italian, and continental scholarship and spanning several disciplines: philology, material culture, history, religion, art history, visual studies, theory from the classical to the contemporary, queer, post- and de-colonial, and feminist studies. The volume combines a rigorous reassessment of Dante's formation, themes, and sources, with a theoretically up-to-date focus on textuality, thereby offering a new critical Dante. The volume is divided into seven sections: 'Texts and Textuality'; 'Dialogues'; 'Transforming Knowledge'; Space(s) and Places'; 'A Passionate Selfhood'; 'A Non-linear Dante'; and 'Nachleben'. It seeks to challenge the Commedia-centric approach (the conviction that notwithstanding its many contradictions, Dante's works move towards the great reservoir of poetry and ideas that is the Commedia), in order to bring to light a non-teleological way in which these works relate amongst themselves. Plurality and the openness of interpretation appear as Dante's very mark, coexisting with the attempt to create an all-encompassing mastership. The Handbook suggests what is exciting about Dante now and indicate where Dante scholarship is going, or can go, in a global context.

Download or read book Dante and the Practice of Humility written by Rachel K. Teubner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Rachel Teubner offers an exploration of humility in Dante's Divine Comedy, arguing that the poem is an ascetical exercise concerned with training its author gradually in the practice of humility, rather than being a reflection of authorial hubris. A contribution to recent scholarship that considers the poem to be a work of self-examination, her volume investigates its scriptural, literary, and liturgical sources, also offering fresh feminist perspectives on its theological challenges. Teubner demonstrates how the poetry of the Comedy is theologically significant, focusing especially on the poem's definition of humility as ethically and artistically meaningful. Interrogating the text canto by canto, she also reveals how contemporary tools of literary analysis can offer new insights into its meaning. Undergraduate and novice readers will benefit from this companion, just as theologians and scholars of medieval religion will be introduced to a growing body of scholarship exploring Dante's religious thought.

Download or read book The Poetry of Dante s Paradiso written by Jeremy Tambling and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that Paradiso – Dante’s vision of Heaven – is not simply affirmative. It posits that Paradiso compensates for disappointment rather than fulfils hopes, and where it moves into joy and vision, this also rationalises the experience of exile and the failure of all Dante’s political hopes. The book highlights and addresses a fundamental problem in reading Dante: the assumption that he writes as a Catholic Christian, which can be off-putting and induces an overly theological and partisan reading in some commentary. Accordingly, the study argues that Dante must be read now in a post-Christian modernity. It discusses Dante's Christianity fully, and takes its details as a source of wonder and beauty which need communicating to a modern reader. Yet, the study also argues that we must read for the alterity of Dante’s world from ours.

Download or read book Dante s Disciple written by Bob Hoffman and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No man has the right to kill another man-but if society can't or won't do its job-then I will. The bastards I had assassinated deserved to die-or worse- and like Charlie Bronson's vigilante friend, Paul Kersey, I'm more than willing to see they get every damn thing they deserve! They sentenced their victims to death and I returned the favor! Death, without the possibility of parole, is my way of showing respect for the sanctity of life, and is the only proven cure for recidivism. Not a single son-of-a-bitch I've had assassinated has ever killed again. Not one! As the pain subsided, the main character of "Dante's Disciple," KO-KO recalled "The Oxbow Incident," a western novel of vigilante injustice he had discovered as a child. My money gives me the power to act as judge, jury, and executioner- but does it give me the right? And what if I make a mistake? What if I execute an innocent man?
