Title
Dante and the Greeks (Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Humanities),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Although Dante never traveled to Greekspeaking lands in the eastern Mediterranean and his exposure to the Greek language was limited, he displays a keen interest in the cultures of Greece, both ancient and medieval, pagan and Christian. Bringing together cartography, history, philosophy, philology, reception studies, religious studies, and other disciplines, these essays tap into knowledge and skills from specialists in the medieval West, Byzantium, and Dante. The twelve contributors discuss the presence of ancient Greek poetry, philosophy, and science (astrology, cosmography, geography) in Dantes writings, as well as the Greek characters who populate his works. Some of these individuals were drawn indirectly from ancient mythography, Homeric epic, and other such sources, while others were historically attested personages, down to Dantes own era. Greek was not only a language and civilization of the past, but also a present (and often rival) religious and political entity. To each layerancient pagan, early Christian, and contemporary ByzantineLatins related differently. Doctrinal, political, linguistic, cultural, and educational matters all played important roles in shaping the attitudes that form the focal point for this volume, which sets the stage for further engagement with Dantes corpus in its cultural settings.
