  • Women in Hell Donne All'inferno

    Women in Hell Donne All'inferno

    All’Inferno, e anche in quello dantesco, non c’è solo Francesca alla quale da anni sono dedicate giornate di studio prima riminesi e quest’anno anche californiane. Sembra infatti che spesso la condizione infernale femminile sia sottovalutata, o addirittura messa da parte, qualche volta con malcelato fastidio. E non solo in Dante: anche nella società, 2012 e quindi anche nella letteratura, che della società è sempre in qualche modo uno specchio. Questo convegno quindi vuol contribuire a pareggiare i conti e a colmare qualche lacuna. Donne letterarie, quindi, precipitate in un qualche inferno (vero o metaforico) per le loro colpe, o per la loro passione, o per quello che una volta si definiva la follia. O per scelta, anche. O semplicemente per la loro natura di donne, spesso innocenti. È un aspetto della condizione femminile da scoprire, ancora oggi. E su cui riflettere. Così, anche questa volta, la vera Francesca, quella da Rimini, Giornate Internazionali Francesca da Rimini avrà avuto la sua giusta considerazione: come la prima, forse, delle donne Sesta edizione (celebri, ma anche quasi anonime come lei) che ha elevato la sua dannazione a simbolo o a metafora di una vita comunque esemplare: anche, e soprattutto, nel dolore, nel ‘peccato’ Los Angeles, 20-21 aprile 2012 e nell’emarginazione. Grazie a Dante, naturalmente. Il convegno di Los Angeles è il sesto appuntamento internazionale all’insegna di Francesca da Rimini per discutere e riflettere sul significato, il valore e i valori del suo mito, tra i più diffusi, popolari, radicati e longevi della cultura occidentale, dilagato da due secoli, in tutti i continenti in tutte le forme d’espressione artistica.

  • The Divine Comedy Alighieri, Dante (Translator: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

    The Divine Comedy Alighieri, Dante (Translator: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

    The Divine Comedy Alighieri, Dante (Translator: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow) Published: 1306 1 About Alighieri: Durante degli Alighieri, better known as Dante Alighieri or simply Dante, (May 14/June 13, 1265 – September 13/14, 1321) was an Italian poet from Florence. His central work, the Com- media (The Divine Comedy), is considered the greatest literary work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. He was the first Italian to have his works pub- lished. Source: Wikipedia 2 Part 1 Inferno 3 Chapter 1 The Dark Forest. The Hill of Difficulty. The Panther, the Lion, and the Wolf. Virgil. Midway upon the journey of our life I found myself within a forest dark, For the straight-forward pathway had been lost. Ah me! how hard a thing it is to say What was this forest savage, rough, and stern, Which in the very thought renews the fear. So bitter is it, death is little more; But of the good to treat, which there I found, Speak will I of the other things I saw there. I cannot well repeat how there I entered, So full was I of slumber at the moment In which I had abandoned the true way. But after I had reached a mountain's foot, At that point where the valley terminated, Which had with consternation pierced my heart, Upward I looked, and I beheld its shoulders, Vested already with that planet's rays Which leadeth others right by every road. Then was the fear a little quieted That in my heart's lake had endured throughout The night, which I had passed so piteously.
  • The Feud of the Ezzelino Dinasty

    The Feud of the Ezzelino Dinasty

    (A) THE FEUD OF THE EZZELINO DYNASTY In that part of the depraved land of Italy that lies between the Rialto and the springs of the Brenta and the Piave, rises a hill of no great height ...: this was how Cunizza da Romano, sister of Ezzelino III, lord of the Marca, described her birthplace to Dante in Paradiso. The definition of depraved given to these lands can be explained by the fact that at the time, the poet had taken refuge in Verona at the court of Cangrande della Scala, the sworn enemy of the Ezzelino family, and it is therefore evident that it is Dante who talks with these very severe tones. 8 In these terms and for a long time, Ezzelino’s tower (San Zenone degli Ezzelini) Fadalto Nove Botteon Savassa Bassa Sonego Osigo Luca Passo San Boldo Longhere Mezzavilla Serravalle Breda Pra De Radego Revine Lago Fregona Montaner Olarigo S.

Eisner, Supervisor ___________________________ David F. Bell, III ___________________________ Roberto Dainotto ___________________________ Valeria Finucci An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Studies in the Graduate School of Duke University 2018 Copyright by Laura Banella 2018 Abstract Rewriting Dante explores Dante’s reception and the construction of his figure as an author in early lyric anthologies and modern editions. While Dante’s reception and his transformation into a cultural authority have traditionally been investigated from the point of view of the Commedia, I argue that these lyric anthologies provide a new perspective for understanding how the physical act of rewriting Dante’s poems in various combinations and with other texts has shaped what I call after Foucault the Dante function” and consecrated Dante as an author from the Middle Ages to Modernity. The study of these lyric anthologies widens our understanding of the process of Dante’s canonization as an author and, thus, as an authority (auctor & auctoritas), advancing our awareness of authors both as entities that generate power and that are generated by power.

The Root Of All Evil: Civic Genealogy From Brunetto To Dante Abstract ABSTRACT THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL: CIVIC GENEALOGY FROM BRUNETTO TO DANTE Chelsea A. Pomponio Kevin Brownlee From the thirteenth century well into the Renaissance, the legend of Florence’s origins, which cast Fiesole as the antithesis of Florentine values, was continuously rewritten to reflect the changing nature of Tuscan society. Modern criticism has tended to dismiss the legend of Florence as a purely literary conceit that bore little relation to contemporary issues. Tracing the origins of the legend in the chronicles of the Duecento to its variants in the works of Brunetto Latini and Dante Alighieri, I contend that the legend was instead a highly adaptive mode of legitimation that proved crucial in the negotiation of medieval Florentine identity. My research reveals that the legend could be continually rewritten to serve the interests of collective and individual authorities. Versions of the legend were crafted to support both republican Guelfs and imperial Ghibellines; to curry favor with the Angevin rulers of Florence and to advance an ethnocentric policy against immigrants; to support the feudal system of privilege and to condemn elite misrule; to denounce the mercantile value of profit and ot praise economic freedom.
  • The States of Italy History of Verona Am

    The States of Italy History of Verona Am

    www.cristoraul.org THE STATES OF ITALY HISTORY OF VERONA A. M. ALLEN 1 www.cristoraul.org PREFACE THERE is no need to explain the origin of this attempt to write the history of Verona, the inherent fascination of the subject speaks for itself. But I cannot let this volume appear without expressing my sincere thanks to all who have assisted me during its preparation. First and foremost I desire to thank the cavaliere Gaetano da Re, of the Biblioteca Comunale at Verona, who, during my two visits to Verona, in 1904 and 1906, placed at my disposal the treasures both of the library and of his learning with the most generous kindness, and since then has settled more than one difficult point. From the other officials of this library, and those of the other libraries I visited, the Biblioteca Capitolare at Verona, the Biblioteca Marciana and the Archivio di Stato (in the Frari) at Venice, and the Archivio Gonzaga at Mantua, I met with the same unfailing and courteous assistance. Among modern works I have found Count Carlo Cipolla’s writings on Verona and his scholarly edition of the early Veronese chroniclers invaluable, while J. M. Gittermann’s Ezzelino III. da Romano, E. Salzer’s Ueber die Anfange der Signorie in Oberitalien, and H. Spangenberg’s Cangrande I are all of the first importance for various periods of Veronese history. My thanks are also due to Miss Croom-Brown, who constructed the three maps, the result of much careful research, and to my cousin, Mr. Alfred Jukes Allen, who read the proofs with minute accuracy.
