Bøger af Alessandro Vettori

In Dante's Prayerful Pilgrimage Alessandro Vettori provides a comprehensive analysis of prayer in Dante's Commedia and considers the prayerful phenomenon a poetic/metaphorical pilgrimage of the soul toward the vision of the Trinity, while also reflecting Dante's own exilic experience.

Clearly written, this incisive critical study opens a new analytic window not only to the rhetoric of medieval Italian poetry but also to a richer understanding of one of the most important strands of medieval European culture.
