Dante Alighieri

    May 30, 1265 – September 13, 1321

    Dante Alighieri stands as one of the preeminent poets in the Italian language, his work profoundly shaped by both idealized love and turbulent politics. The figure of Beatrice, though their connection was largely imagined, became a potent symbol of heavenly virtue and a guide through the quest for salvation in his masterpiece. The political strife and exile from Florence imbued his writing with a passionate moral and political urgency. Dante's verses encapsulate a medieval worldview, exploring the depths of the human soul and seeking order within worldly chaos.

      "Ecarquillant comme jamais les yeux, Je vis des ombres vêtues de manteaux Dont la couleur était celle du roc." Parce que la Divine Comédie est vivante, Emmanuel Tugny s'attache à en restituer la puissance imaginative et musicale, tandis que Jacques Cauda nous offre des trente-trois chants du Purgatoire des images frappantes, éclatantes - heureusement dérangeantes.
