Vertical Readings in Dante’s 'Comedy'
Book •
The 'Vertical Readings in Dante’s Comedy' series gathers essays that read themes or motifs vertically across Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso rather than treating the canticles separately, highlighting continuity and development in Dante's thought.
Edited volumes in the series bring together scholars from literature, theology, and philosophy to reconsider Dante's structures, characters, and theological commitments.
The approach illuminates how Dante's poem constructs sustained arguments about ethics, desire, and knowledge across its entirety.
Contributors explore interdisciplinary methods, combining close reading with historical and doctrinal contexts to enrich interpretation.
The collection has become a useful resource for students and scholars seeking integrated readings of Dante's work.
