Descriere
Dante is one of the towering figures in world literature, and yet many riddles and questions about his life and work persist. In the first full-length biography of him in more than twenty years, Barbara Reynolds offers provocative new ideas in every chapter. For example, many have read the Commedia as a lyrical parable about reward and punishment; Reynolds suggests that Dante was arguing against the Pope and for an Emperor as supreme secular authority of medieval Europe. Drawing from an impressive array of sources, Reynolds delivers a comprehensive analysis of the poet, placing him within the context of his culture and society to deepen our understanding of a complicated man who was irritable, opinionated, vengeful, and an extraordinary genius.

Recenzii
A lavish vita, it is also an extraordinarily vivid and incisive chronicle of the dynamics and titanic clashes in Italian and European political life at the time . It is a detailed cultural and intellectual map of the times, and a gripping intertextual reading of Dante's works, interlacing fine scholarly detail with the universal themes and emotions that have made Dante's words almost archetypal for Western consciousness ... Never dryly archaeological, invariably intelligent, this is a riveting account of Dante the man in all his manifestations.
