Description

This collection of essays discusses discusses Dante's new life in 20th century literature and cinema, and includes essays in memory of Amilcare. "The Comedy's uncanny ability to generate meaning derives not so much from its formal, hierarchical allegory as from the allusive density of its literal narrative.... In saying this, I do not mean to imply that the Commedia's polysemy is boundless and structure—less: the poem defines the terrain within which meaning may be made."— Amilcare Iannucci
