    Issue 70: Dante's Guide to Heaven and Hell Dante and the Divine Comedy: Did You Know? What a famous painting suggests about Dante's life, legend, and legacy. Big Man in the Cosmos A giant in the world of which he wrote, laurel-crowned Dante stands holding his Divine Comedy open to the first lines: "Midway this way of life we're bound upon, / I woke to find myself in a dark wood, / Where the right road was wholly lost and gone." Of course, his copy reads in Italian. Dante was the first major writer in Christendom to pen lofty literature in everyday language rather than in formal Latin. Coming 'Round the Mountain Behind Dante sits multi-tiered Mount Purgatory. An angel guards the gate, which stands atop three steps: white marble for confession, cracked black stone for contrition, and red porphyry for Christ's blood sacrifice. With his sword, the angel marks each penitent's forehead with seven p's (from Latin peccatum, "sin") for the Seven Deadly Sins. When these wounds are washed away by penance, the soul may enter earthly paradise at the mountain's summit. Starry Heights In Paradiso, the third section of the Comedy, Dante visits the planets and constellations where blessed souls dwell. The celestial spheres look vague in this painting, but Dante had great interest in astronomy. One of his astronomical references still puzzles scholars. He notes "four stars, the same / The first men saw, and since, no living eye" (Purgatorio, I.23-24), apparently in reference to the Southern Cross. But that constellation was last visible at Dante's latitude (thanks to the earth's wobbly axis) in 3000 B.C., and no one else wrote about it in Europe until after Amerigo Vespucci's voyage in 1501.

    Cultural and Religious Studies, August 2016, Vol. 4, No. 8, 488-520 doi: 10.17265/2328-2177/2016.08.002 D DAVID PUBLISHING Illustrations for Dante’s Inferno: A Comparative Study of Sandro Botticelli, Giovanni Stradano, and Federico Zuccaro Liana De Girolami Cheney SIEALE, Universidad de Coruña, Spain This essay is twofold: the first part focuses on the interpretation of the concept of Hell in Dante’s Inferno and Italian culture as depicted in Last Judgment scenes such as Giotto’s in the Arena Chapel of Padua; Signorelli’s in the Orvieto Cathedral; and Michelangelo’s in the Sistine Chapel in Rome. The second part deals with the drawing illustrations for the text of Dante’s Divine Comedy composed by the Florentine painters Sandro Botticelli, Giovanni Stradano, and Federico Zuccaro. Here the emphasis is on Dante’s Inferno, which comments upon Neoplatonic personalities, Florentine politics, and current popular art. Comparisons with some of Botticelli’s, Stradano’s, and Zuccaro’s drawing illustrations indicate the assimilation of classical artistic concepts such as Horace’s ut pictura poesis [as is painting so is poetry] as well as Plato’s furor poeticus [poetical inspiration] promoted in the writings of Marsilio Ficino, a Renaissance Neoplatonic philosopher. Keywords: Dante, Divine Comedy, canto (chant), Hell, creativity, poetry, drawings, Botticelli, Stradano, Zuccaro, Neoplatonism, ut pictura poesis, furor poeticus, Marsilio Ficino Introduction Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita mi ritrovai per un a selva oscura che la diritta via era smarrita. [In the middle of the journey of our life I found myself astray in a dark forest Where the straight road was gone.] Dante’s Inferno, Canto I The Divine Comedy or poema sacro [sacred poem], the masterpiece of the Florentine poet Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), is the most widely illuminated book of medieval literature.

  • Francesca Da Rimini
    DONNE CONTRO EROINE DI IERI E DI OGGI A CONFRONTO di Adele Rovereto FRANCESCA DA RIMINI Francesca, figlia di Guido da Polenta, signore di Ravenna, nel 1275 venne data in sposa al deforme Gianciotto Malatesta, che deteneva il potere su Rimini. Poco dopo le nozze, la nobildonna si innamorò del cognato Paolo, detto il Bello, e durante un convegno d’amore, sorpresi da Gianciotto, vennero da questi uccisi. Il Castello di Gradara sarebbe stato il teatro di questa fosca vicenda. Dante, che aveva trascorso gli ultimi anni dell’esilio a Ravenna alla corte dei da Polenta, venuto a conoscenza della storia, riservò un ruolo centrale ai due infelici amanti nel V Canto dell’Inferno. Anche Boccaccio, nelle Esposizioni sopra la Comedia (1373), riprese l’episodio, rielaborandolo attraverso differenti versioni, più o meno romanzate; l’infedeltà di Francesca sarebbe stata motivata dall’inganno con il quale era stata convinta alle nozze: Paolo aveva chiesto la sua mano al posto del fratello nel timore che la deformità di Gianciotto portasse la giovane ad un rifiuto. Boccaccio lascia nel dubbio se Francesca, pur frequentando Paolo, abbia effettivamente consumato l’adulterio. Certo è che i due giovani vennero traditi da un cortigiano, pronto ad avvisare il marito della tresca. Gianciotto finse di partire per poi tornare in segreto e sorprendere insieme i due cognati. Paolo fece un tentativo di fuga, ma, secondo la tradizione, rimase impigliato con il piede nell’anello della botola della camera da letto di Francesca, divenendo facile preda dell’ira del fratello, il quale, subito dopo, volse la spada contro la moglie.

  • Dante's Divine Comedy and Rumi's Masnavi in Comparative Perspective
    CLEaR, 2016, 3(2 ), ISSN 2453 - 7128 DOI: 10.1515/clear - 2016 - 0010 On Mystical Metamorphosis in Christianity and Islam: Dante’s Divine Comedy and Rumi’s Masnavi in Comparative Perspective Nour Seblini Wayne State University, USA [email protected] Abstract Journey emerges in multiple faces in literature. But when this substantial subset of quests adopts the mystical aspect, it creates a mystery that triggers the discovery sense in human beings. The present article develops a comparative analysis on the complex nature of mystical metamorphosis as expressed in two of the most influential writings of the East and West: Rumi´s Masnavi and Dante´s Divine Comedy . The first part discusses the concept of mysticism and poetry, and reveals the nature of their connection. The second part of this work investigates the historical setting of Dante´s and Rumi´s lives in relation to the social environment of the time. The last part emphasizes the idea of mystical metamorphosis as expressed in the Divine Comedy and Masnavi through two fundamental vehicles: love and faith. This work demonstrates how, in a world rife with wars and misery, mysticism provides a vital key to building a strong bridge between Islam and Ch ristianity, and on a larger scale, to metamorphosizing the “clash of civilizations” into a “confluence of civilizations”. Keywords Dante, Rumi, Divine Comedy, Masnavi, comparative mysticism, poetry, spirituality Introduction Longing to discover whatever is mysterious has powerfully excited the interest of human nature. At its most profound ranges, e ntering into zones that desire to be spoken is that which defines the mystical experience .

  • A Short Biography of Dante Alighieri by P.M.Bechtel1
    A SHORT BIOGRAPHY OF DANTE ALIGHIERI BY P.M.BECHTEL1 Dante Alighieri (1265–1321) Italian poet Dante is one of the great figures of world literature and the most eminent of all Italian writers. Born in Florence of a rather noble family, he was educated under the supervision of members of the Dominican and Franciscan Orders. As a young man, he was made one of the priors (chief magistrates) of the Florentine Republic and entered into the political struggles that divided Florence into several hostile factions. While absent on a diplomatic mission in 1302, he was exiled. Some thirteen years afterward, he was invited to return to his native city if he would submit to certain humiliating conditions. Dante refused. He spent the rest of his life in exile in various Italian cities: Verona, Padua, Bologna. He died in Ravenna. Dante’s first significant work was La Vita Nuova (The New Life), written between 1292 and 1295. Composed partly in blank verse and partly in prose, the book tells of Dante’s love for Beatrice and promises to treat the subject more worthily later, a promise kept in The Divine Comedy. Beatrice Portinari, object of the poet’s idealized love, Dante hardly knew at all. He had met her only briefly when he was nine years old, and once again at eighteen. De Monarchia (On Monarchy), written in exile about 1312, is a political treatise in which Dante defended the emperor’s supremacy in temporal matters over the authority of the Church. Dante put forward the idea of one world government which would secure a universal peace, thus promoting the full realization of humanity’s intellectual and cultural potential.

  • The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri (1265-1321)
    The Divine Comedy By Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) http://www.cummingsstudyguides.net/Guides2/DivineCom.html Original Title . Originally La commedia di Dante Alighieri (The Comedy of Dante Alighieri). In 1555, when a special edition of the poem was published in Venice, admirers of the great work added the word "Divina" ("Divine") to call attention to its greatness. Thus, it became known as La Divina Commedia (The Divine Comedy) and the author's name was dropped from the title. In the original title, "di" ("of") appears to have a double meaning. On the one hand, it means Dante wrote the work. On the other, it means Dante experienced what took place in the work. Study Questions and Short/Long Answer Topics • Why does The Divine Comedy remain one of the world's most popular literary classics, appearing in college curriculums around the world? • To what extent did Dante intend his description of the afterlife to be taken literally? To what extent was it to be taken figuratively or allegorically? • Identify TDC passages/quotes and additional research summarizing TDC as seen through the Forces of Literature perspective: o the effects of prior literature, and influence on future literature o the historical/the cultural/religious context of the day o the author’s personal background . background . beliefs o the author’s worldview and themes Author Information . The author of The Divine Comedy was Dante Alighieri, Italy's greatest poet, who was born to a middle- class family in Florence, Italy, in 1265. After his mother died when he was an adolescent, his father remarried and had two more children, a boy and a girl.
