- The monograph is the result of over 15 years of work on one of the most significant texts in Western culture. It presents an innovative interdisciplinary analysis of Dante’s Commedia across the disciplines of Theology, Dante Studies and Religion and Literature. It is the first monograph-length study of its kind, and the numerous close readings it offers open up a number of perspectives from which substantially to re-interpret the poem. Given the monograph’s innovative methodology and the significance of Dante’s Commedia across many fields, the work can constructively contribute to a wide range of scholarly debates.
