Description
I Miscredenti di Dite Saggi di semantica Dantesca
The volume contains eleven essays with the same exegetical project which had inspired the four previous studies about Dante’s semantics: I ladri di Malebolge, Il richiamo dell’antica strega, Tra gli adepti di Sodoma e L’orgia d’amore. Through the analysis of episodes and passages from the Commedia - anche focussing on the poetic and exemplar relevance that some characters have in the poem (Francesca, Farinata, Cavalcante, Pier della Vigna, ser Brunetto, Stazio) - the results of Dante’s meditation about ethical, religious and gnoseological topic are highlighted. The very same importance, in an examination about the correlation between the Commedia and the Monarchia and some of the epistles, is given to the writer’s political ideologies - or, better, political and religious. The critical setting of these investigations is no way only about content or ideology, as the author, who came to innovative interpretations, also wanted to fathom the possible and not rare meanings of the poet’s words, reconstructing the processes of his expressive selectivity.
