| Summary: | The latest volume in The William and Katherine Devers Series in Dante Studies emerged from the 2003 eponymously titled conference at Robinson College in Cambridge, where an impassioned discussion on the relationship between theology and poetry took place. The essays presented in Dante's Commedia: Theology as Poetry focus on the controversial connections between not only theology and poetry, as the title promises, but also meta-critical arguments on theology and language. The title is thus somewhat misleading. While not damaging the book's content, the title is limiting as the collection includes far more than the poetic form in which Dante writes. |
