Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Dante Alighieri First published Mon Jan 29, 2001; substantive revision Fri Dec 18, 2009 Dante's engagement with philosophy cannot be studied apart from his vocation as a writer, in which he sought to raise the level of public discourse by educating his countrymen and inspiring them to pursue happiness in the contemplative life. He was one of the most learned Italian laymen of his day, intimately familiar with Aristotelian logic and natural philosophy, theology (he had a special affinity for the thought of Albert the Great and Thomas Aquinas), and classical literature. His writings reflect this in its mingling of philosophical and theological language, invoking Aristotle and the neo-Platonists side by side with the poet of the psalms. Like Aquinas, Dante wished to summon his audience to the practice of philosophical wisdom, though by means of truths embedded in his own poetry, rather than mysteriously embodied in scripture. 1.

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... D > Dante Alighieri Dante Alighieri Italian poet, born at Florence , 1265; died at Ravenna, Italy , 14 September, 1321. His own statement in the "Paradiso" (xxii, 112-117) that he was born when the sun was in Gemini , fixes his birthday between 18 May and 17 June. He was the son of Alighiero di Bellincione Alighieri, a notary belonging to an ancient but decadent Guelph family , by his first wife, Bella , who was possibly a daughter of Durante di Scolaio Abati , a Ghibelline noble. A few months after the poet's birth, the victory of Charles of Anjou over King Manfred at Benevento (26 February, 1266) ended the power of the empire in Italy , placed a French dynasty upon the throne of Naples , and secured the predominance of the Guelphs in Tuscany . Dante thus grew up amidst the triumphs of the Florentine democracy , in which he took some share fighting in the front rank of the Guelph cavalry at the battle of Campaldino (11 June, 1289), when the Tuscan Ghibellines were defeated by the forces of the Guelph league, of which

Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback TimeSearch for Books and Writers by Bamber Gascoigne Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) The greatest Italian poet and one of the most important writers of European literature. Dante is best known for the epic poem COMMEDIA, c. 1310-14, later named LA DIVINA COMMEDIA. It has profoundly affected not only the religious imagination but all subsequent allegorical creation of imaginary worlds in literature. Dante spent much of his life traveling from one city to another. This had perhaps more to do with the restless times than his wandering character or fixation on the Odyssey. However, his Commedia can also be called a spiritual travel book. "It were a shameful thing if one should rhyme under the semblance of metaphor or rhetorical similitude, and afterwards, being questioned thereof, should be unable to rid his words of such semblance, unto their right understanding." (from Vita Nuova , c. 1293) Dante Alighieri was born into a Florentine family of noble ancestry. Little is known about Dante's childhood, but the city where he spent the first 38 years of his life was an important cultural and political center. Dante's mother, Bella degli Abati, died when he was seven years old. His father, Alighiero II, made his living by money-lending and renting of property. After the death of his wife he remarried, but died in the early 1280s, before the future poet reached manhood. Brunetto Latini, a man of letters and a politician, became a father figure for Dante, but later in his

Other jobs Soldier, diplomat, magistrate Did you know? Dante claims in the Vita Nuova to have first seen and fallen in love with Beatrice, his worldly and spiritual passion, when she was just nine. Critical verdict Dante is now seen as the creator of modern Italian; before The Divine Comedy, the vernacular was so unformed that he is said to have begun writing it in Latin, doubting that it was a fit medium. Boccaccio was an early commentator, while Dante's first English mention comes in Chaucer, who drew strongly on Italian Renaissance authors, and he swiftly became popular. Horace Walpole was a dissenting voice ("absurd, disgusting... a Methodist person in Bedlam"), but the Romantic poets rediscovered him, Blake conjuring limpid, visionary illustrations to the Comedy. The drier modernists also feel his power: Eliot was strongly influenced, and Beckett kept the Comedy by him until his death.
