43. The Classic Text: Dante Alighieri
    Online version of exhibition at the University of Western Michigan. Include reproductions of illustrations of Dante s work from different printed editions throughout history.  
    http://www.uwm.edu/Dept/Library/special/exhibits/clastext/clspg064.htm
    
    Extractions: T he Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri remains today one of the pillars upon which the European literary tradition has been built. Originally titled simply Commedia , Dante's masterpiece was written at the end of his life and finished just before his death in 1321. In an era of hand-copied manuscripts, it reached a large and appreciative audience quickly. By the year 1400, no fewer than 12 commentaries devoted to detailed expositions of its meaning had appeared to support the text. Giovanni Boccaccio wrote on the poet's life and in 1373-1374 delivered the first public lectures on Dante's Commedia D ante's work flourished in the fifteenth century along with the printing press, and he became known as the divino poeta or divine poet. In 1555, a fine edition of his Commedia was published in Venice with the adjective divine applied to the poem's title for the first time, resulting in the title still in use today, The Divine Comedy O f Dante's approach to this classic text, Ben�t's Reader's Encyclopedia T he Divine Comedy is also important for its place in the history of the development of the Italian language. Dante opposed the assumptions of his day that prescribed Latin as the only appropriate language for serious writing. He advocated the use of a courtly Italian enriched with the best of every spoken dialect to form a serious literary language. This would help to unify the separated Italian territories by the creation of a national culture, an end to which Dante strived his entire life. While falling short of his goal of unification, Dante did use his native Tuscan as a basis for several of his works, including

44. Dante Alighieri - Poet - Philosopher - Political Thinker
    Dante Alighieri is often considered the finest poet of the Middle Ages.  
    http://historymedren.about.com/library/who/blwwdante.htm
    
    Extractions: Philosopher Italy: Florence Dante Alighieri, known simply as "Dante," is often considered the finest poet of the Middle Ages and is best known for his epic La divina commedia ("The Divine Comedy"). He was also a philosopher and political thinker. He wrote most of his poetry in the Italian vernacular instead of Latin, a choice that would influence the entire course of western literary development. Dante is well known for idolizing Beatrice, a woman who is usually identified as Beatrice Pornari. Dante met her when they were children, and she died when he was only 25, before his first major work ( La vita nuova ) was written. Dante's dedication to and adoration of Beatrice in his poetry made her one of the most celebrated figures in western literature. Deeply involved in the politics of his beloved Florence, Dante fought as a cavalryman as a young man and entered public office in his thirties. The city was in turmoil in the late 13th century, and his alliance with the White Guelfs led to opposition with the Pope, whom he went to visit on a diplomatic mission. While he was detained in Rome by the papal authorities, the rival Black Guelfs returned to Florence and terrorized the city. In January of 1302 he was called to appear before their new government and, failing to do so, was condemned for crimes he had not committed. Failing to appear once more in March of that year, Dante was condemned to be burned to death should he ever return to Florence.

47. Dante's Divine Comedy
    A personal website devoted to study of Dante, includes, among other things, maps of Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven as envisioned by the poet.  
    http://www.angelfire.com/ak/Nyquil/Dante.html
    
    Extractions: It is divided into 3 sections: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Each one of these sections is divided into 33 cantos (except Inferno, which has 34 cantos), which are written in tercets (groups of 3 lines). The number 3 in Dante's time was significant because it was considered holysince the Father (God), Son (Jesus), and Holy Ghost comprise the Trinity. Dante Pilgrim has not been a good boy. His dead love Beatrice asks the Virgin Mary to help him see the error of his ways. Mary accepts and Dante is sent on a three-day trip through Hell, and on up Mount Purgatory on the other side of the world, and finally to Heaven in the sky. He is spiritually lost at the beginning of the story, so he needs guides to help him along the path. His first guide, through Hell and Purgatory is Virgil (author of the Aeneid). They encounter many interesting sinners on the way. Dante learns to hate sin. His second guide is Beatrice, the woman he adored while she lived. His final guide is Saint Bernard (namesake of the loyal dog), who takes him to see God.

48. Renaissance Dante In Print (1472-1629)
    An online exhibition of illuminated Renaissance editions of Dante s Divine Comedy.  
    http://www.nd.edu/~italnet/Dante/
    
    Extractions: THIS EXHIBITION presents Renaissance editions of Dante's Divine Comedy from the John A. Zahm, C.S.C. , Dante Collection at the University of Notre Dame , together with selected treasures from The Newberry Library . The Zahm collection ranks among the top Dante collections in North America. Purchased for the most part by Zahm in 1902 from the Italian Dantophile Giulio Acquaticci, the 15th- and 16th- century imprints presented here form the heart of Zahm's collection, which totals nearly 3,000 volumes, including rare editions and critical studies from the Renaissance to the present. The nine incunable editions and nearly complete series of 16th-century imprints featured in this exhibit constitute essential primary sources for both the history of Dante's reception during the Renaissance and the early history of the printed book. The concentrated Dante collection at Notre Dame is nicely complemented by the wide-ranging holdings of The Newberry Library in Renaissance literature and history, and especially for the history of printing and publishing. These two rich and varied collections have often been used by Dantists in the Midwest and from abroad. The complementarity of the collections is mirrored in the formal cooperation of Notre Dame and The Newberry Library through the consortium of The Newberry Library Center for Renaissance Studies, of which Notre Dame has been an active member since 1983. The exhibit was originally held at the Department of Special Collections, University Libraries, University of Notre Dame, October 15 - December 15, 1993 and the Newberry Library between 15 April - 15 June, 1994, and has been produced in expanded form for Internet publication by a collaboration between the William and Katherine

51. Dante
    Article about Dante s life and work  
    http://www.tabula-rasa.info/DarkAges/Dante.html
    
    Extractions: Search / Site Map Contacts Dante Alighieri was a man firmly enmeshed in the world he found himself in thirteenth to fourteenth century Italy. Too early for the Renaissance, there was still a great deal of art and literature being created and fostered by the fashionable set. If nothing else it would take their mind off politics, an intricate and often bloody pastime in a world much smaller than our own local affairs having corresponding more import. As we saw in relation to Vlad Dracula last issue, Europe was still under the influence of the decaying Holy Roman Empire, the Catholic Church being the other major (often competing) power block. This background is more than just detail from the poet's life, it permeates his own experiences and the writings based on them.

    Extractions: Edited by Vittorio Montemaggi and Matthew Treherne "Long taken for granted in Dante studies, the nexus between theology and poetry in Dante’s work, especially in the Commedia , has only really been subjected to searching critical analysis in the last few decades. The scholars represented in this interdisciplinary collection explore the poem’s claims to function as a text embodying theological truth and, more particularly, as a poetic representation of the experience of the mystical. Their efforts comprise a landmark in modern Dante studies." — Steven Botterill, University of California, Berkeley

57. Epistola VI (Toynbee)
    Translation by Paget Toynbee.  
    http://dante.ilt.columbia.edu/new/books/toynbee/Epist_VI_toynbee.html
    
    Extractions: Go to Bibliography Dante Alighieri, a Florentine undeservedly in exile, to the most iniquitous Florentines within the city. 2. But you, who transgress every law of God and man, and whom the insatiable greed of avarice has urged all too willing into every crime, does the dread of the second death not haunt you, seeing that you first and you alone, shrinking from the yoke of liberty, have murmured against the glory of the Roman Emperor, the king of the earth, and minister of God; and under cover of prescnptive right, refusing the duty of submission due to him, have chosen rather to rise up in the madness of rebellion? Have you to learn, senseless and perverse ? But if reflection upon your evil designs bring you no fears, at least let this strike terror into your hardened hearts, that as the penalty for your crime not only wisdom, but the beginning of wisdom, has been taken from you. For no condition of the sinner is more terrible than that of him who, shamelessly and without the fear of God, does whatsoever he lists. Full often, indeed, the wicked man is smitten with this punishment, that as during life he has been oblivious of God, so when he dies he is rendered oblivious of himself. 3. But if your insolent arrogance has so deprived you of the dew from on high, like the mountain-tops of Gilboa, that you have not feared to resist the decree of the eternal senate, and have felt no fear at not having feared, shall that deadly fear, to wit human and worldly fear, not overwhelm you, when the inevitable shipwreck of your proud race, and the speedy end of your deeply to be rued lawlessness, shall be seen to be hard at hand? Do you put infallible signs and incontrovertible arguments, your city, worn out with ceaseless mourning, shall be delivered at the last into the hands of the stranger, after the greatest part of you has been destroyed in death or captivity; and the few that shall be left to endure exile shall witness her downfall with tears and lamentation. Those sufferings, in short, which for liberty's sake the glorious city of Saguntum endured in her loyalty, you in your disloyalty must undergo with shame but to become slaves.
