520 "Dante Alighieri cited the Bible extensively in his
Commedia, but also used his epic poem to meditate on the
meaning of the Scriptures as a 'true' text. The Biblical
Dante provides close readings of passages from the
Commedia to explore how Dante's concept of Biblical truth
differs sharply from modern notions.
520 8 V. Stanley Benfell examines Dante's argument that the
truth of the sacred text could only be revealed when
engaged with in a transformative manner - and that a lack
of such encounters in his time had led to a rise in greed
and corruption, notably within the Church. He also
illustrates how the poet put forth a vision for the
restoration of a just society using Biblical language and
imagery, revealing ideas of both earthly and eternal
happiness. The Biblical Dante provides an insightful
analysis of attitudes towards both the Bible and how it
was read in the Medieval period."--Pub. desc.
