MedievalItalianTheologyPhilosophyPoetry

This volume is the first to examine in parallel the ways in which twentieth- and twenty-first century Anglo-American Dante scholarship and Italian dantistica have studied key issues at the centre of the poet’s oeuvre. It offers a critically and contextually informed overview that concentrates on the main trends, features, and specificities of both traditions, as well as their points of contact. Leading scholars discuss the history and development of the principal questions that characterize the present-day study of Dante and his writings—questions related to Dante’s biography, his religious and political beliefs, his literary and doctrinal readings and knowledge, and the position of his writings in modern critical developments.

Zygmunt G. Barański is Serena Professor of Italian Emeritus at the University of Cambridge and Notre Dame Professor of Dante & Italian Studies at the University of Notre Dame. He has published extensively on Dante, on medieval Italian literature, on Dante’s fourteenth- and twentieth-century reception, and on twentieth-century Italian literature, film, and culture. For many years he was senior editor of The Italianist, and currently holds the same position with Le tre corone.

Theodore J. Cachey, Jr., is Fabiano Collegiate Professor of Italian and Ravarino Family Director of the Center of Italian Studies and the Devers Program in Dante Studies at the University of Notre Dame. Cachey specializes in Italian Medieval and Renaissance literature, particularly Dante and Petrarch, the history of the Italian language, and the literature and history of travel. He is the founder and co-editor of the William and Katherine Devers Series in Dante Studies and is Direttore/Editor in Chief of Le tre corone.

Anna Pegoretti is Associate Professor of Italian Literature at Roma Tre University. She specializes in Italian medieval literature and Dante studies.
