Итог: | Many professors who teach Dante's Divine Comedy, or any great text, in the general education classroom see in it an opportunity to teach their students to humble themselves before texts older and greater than students' own personal views and experiences.

This article discusses three things my own students have taught me about reading-and teaching-Dante, and invites other professors to look for the places where their students act as the Virgil to their Dante rather than the other way around. |
