Editorial : "All in all, though, Dante for the New Millennium represents a major achievement. Thematically diverse yet tightly organized, finely edited, oriented both toward past approaches and future directions of research in the field, withajudiciouslya, - separate bibliographies for each section, and a fine general indexthe volume richly illustrates the thematic, methodological, and critical diversity of contemporary Anglo-American Dante studies."
The twenty-five original essays in this remarkable book constitute both a state of the art survey of Dante scholarship and a manifesto for new understandings of one of the world's great poets. The fruit of an historic conference called by the Dante Society of America, the essays confront a range of important questions. What theories, methods, and issues are unique to Dante scholarship?

From John Ahern on the first copies of the Commedia to Peter Hawkins and Rachel Jacoff on Dante after modernism, the essays shed brilliant new light on Dante's texts, his world, and what we make of his legacy. The contributors: John Ahern, H. Wayne Storey, Guglielmo Gorni, Teodolinda Barolini, Gary P. Cestaro, Lino Pertile, F. Regina Psaki, Steven Botterill, Giuseppe Mazzotta, Alison Cornish, Robert M.

So many YouTube teachers do a quick lesson on what is session 1 in this book, then skip all the way to what is session 5 in this course, in the space of a 10 minute YouTube video. With the help of a tutor, a somewhat more advanced student can discuss the situations pictured, the names of the many objects on each page, his or her own activities, and more. This story was all over the place, some chapters were good and just when you
