Dante e l’Umbria - L’Umbria e Dante
Atti del Convegno di studi
Acquasparta, Palazzo Cesi, 2-3 ottobre 2020

In agreement with the city of Acquasparta, the cultural association “La Cartadue” promoted the convention “Dante e l’Umbria. L’Umbria e Dante”, on the occasion of the seventh centenary of the poet’s death, also considering that Acquasparta is one of the locations named in the Divina Commedia.
The essays here published propose again the reports made by university professors in the prestigious Palazzo Cesi. They all cover a precise thematic line. In the first part there are the dantean arguments linked to the history of Umbria: the De vulgari eloquentia (Emiliano Picchiorri) to show the geo-linguistic framework of central Italy (Silvia Capotosto), Dante’s San Francesco (Roberto Mercuri), also compared to the historical one (Fabio Dainotti), Matteo from Acquasparta (Irene Chirico), Santa Chiara (Elena Landoni), san Benedetto (Sara Ferilli). In the second part, instead, are shown authors from Umbria who studied Dante: Francesco Torti (Giancarlo Rati), Luigi Valli (Raffaele Giglio), and Aldo Capitini (Sandro Gentili).

Letture e contributi danteschi (Rome, Bulzoni, 2000), La polemica intorno a L’Italiade e altri saggi su Angelo Maria Ricci (Rome, Bulzoni, 2007). To be mentioned his commented editiond of the Corrispondenza di Monteverde by Francesco Torti, in two volumes (Perugia, Fabrizio Fabbri Editore, 2002) and of Galateo by Giovanni della Casa (Rome, Newton Compton, 1993). In the end, the Lectura Dantis Interamnensis – a “lectura” of the Commedia through its characters – he cured the work, in five volumes, published by Bulzoni (2006-2013).
