Together the chapters explore how Dante’s writings engage with the contemporary culture of medieval Florence and Italy, and how and why his political and moral thought still speaks compellingly to modern readers. The collection’s contributors range across different disciplines and scholarly traditions – history, philology, classical reception, philosophy, theology – to scrutinise Dante’s Divine Comedy and his other works in Italian and Latin, offering a multi-faceted approach to the evolution of Dante’s political, ethical and legal thought throughout his writing career.Ethics in literatureDanteComparative literatureliteratureEthics in literature.809.39353Gaimari Giulia1371459Gaimari GiuliaKeen ChaterineMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910747600803321Ethics, politics and justice in Dante3574732UNINA
