   An annotated (in linked hypertext) biography of the poet.  
   http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/04628a.htm
   
   Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... D > Dante Alighieri A B C D ... Z Italian poet, born at Florence, 1265; died at Ravenna, Italy , 14 September, 1321. His own statement in the "Paradiso" (xxii, 112-117) that he was born when the sun was in Gemini, fixes his birthday between 18 May and 17 June. He was the son of Alighiero di Bellincione Alighieri, a notary belonging to an ancient but decadent Guelph family, by his first wife, Bella, who was possibly a daughter of Durante di Scolaio Abati, a Ghibelline noble. A few months after the poet's birth, the victory of Charles of Anjou over King Manfred at Benevento (26 February, 1266) ended the power of the empire in Italy, placed a French dynasty upon the throne of Naples, and secured the predominance of the Guelphs in Tuscany. Dante thus grew up amidst the triumphs of the Florentine democracy, in which he took some share fighting in the front rank of the Guelph cavalry at the battle of Campaldino (11 June, 1289), when the Tuscan Ghibellines were defeated by the forces of the Guelph league, of which Florence was the head. This victory was followed by a reformation of the Florentine constitution, associated with the name of Giano della Bella, a great-hearted noble who had joined the people. By the Ordinances of Justice (1293) all nobles and magnates were more strictly excluded from the government, and subjected to severe penalties for offences against plebeians. To take any part in public life, it was necessary to be enrolled in one or other of the "Arts" (the guilds in which the burghers and artisans were banded together), and accordingly Dante matriculated in the guild of physicians and apothecaries. On 6 July, 1295, he spoke in the General Council of the Commune in favour of some modification in the Ordinances of Justice after which his name is frequently found recorded as speaking or voting in the various councils of the republic.

   Extractions: I've noticed that the guestbook was down for some time, due to a little technical problem which is now fixed. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Furthermore, as you may notice looking at the bottom of this page, a new minimalistic counter is now implemented, since the previous one was also not working anymore. Unfortunately, I couldn't keep track of the previous counter value, so we're starting from again. In order to avoid mass email spamming, I've modified all the email addresses in the site so that now they're in the form "name (at) greatdante (dot) net". Of course, you just need to substitute @ for (at) and . for (dot). I'm sorry for the additional trouble, but email spamming was becoming really too heavy during the last months. I've moved to the USA to attend abroad a term of my Master degree course. This means I'll probably be slower when answering your inquiries and some of them will be delayed till I'll be able to look up my books about Dante which I couldn't bring here. This will last approximately until the end of December. Sorry in advance for any inconvenience, but please keep visiting my site and sending comments and questions!

    Extractions: This very large group of 2,234 records represents pamphlets, newspapers, clippings, periodicals, manuscripts (mostly student theses)and many "per nozze" items (pamphlets published in honor of a wedding). Several of the items have pull-out charts of the Inferno, Purgatory, and Paradise, or of the Alighieri family tree. Dates range from 1797 to 1943. The importance of these materials to the field of Dante studies is of no surprise, since Mazzoni was a Dante scholar and President of the Societa` Dantesca. With the exception of book-length works, virtually everything written on the subject in Italian during the nineteenth century can be found here, including lesser-known authors. One can also find the texts of Mazzoni's Lectura Dantis, a lecture series which he founded and participated in. There are a number of periodicals (for example, Il Giornale Dantesco) and unique issues commemorating the poet's birth date. Of interest also are the unusual and often beautifully illustrated items which announce the publication of luxury editions of Dante texts, particularly the Divine Comedy. Rare and aesthetically beautiful Dante studies

12. Dante Alighieri
    Life and work of 13th century Italian poet and philosopher; by Winthrop Wetherbee.  
    http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/dante/
    
    Extractions: MAR Dante's engagement with philosophy cannot be studied apart from his vocation as a writer, in which he sought to raise the level of public discourse by educating his countrymen and inspiring them to pursue happiness in the contemplative life. He was one of the most learned Italian laymen of his day, intimately familiar with Aristotelian logic and natural philosophy, theology (he had a special affinity for the thought of Albert the Great and Thomas Aquinas), and classical literature. His writings reflect this in its mingling of philosophical and theological language, invoking Aristotle and the neo-Platonists side by side with the poet of the psalms. Like Aquinas, Dante wished to summon his audience to the practice of philosophical wisdom, though by means of truths embedded in his own poetry, rather than mysteriously embodied in scripture. 1.

    Extractions: T he Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri remains today one of the pillars upon which the European literary tradition has been built. Originally titled simply Commedia , Dante's masterpiece was written at the end of his life and finished just before his death in 1321. In an era of hand-copied manuscripts, it reached a large and appreciative audience quickly. By the year 1400, no fewer than 12 commentaries devoted to detailed expositions of its meaning had appeared to support the text. Giovanni Boccaccio wrote on the poet's life and in 1373-1374 delivered the first public lectures on Dante's Commedia D ante's work flourished in the fifteenth century along with the printing press, and he became known as the divino poeta or divine poet. In 1555, a fine edition of his Commedia was published in Venice with the adjective divine applied to the poem's title for the first time, resulting in the title still in use today, The Divine Comedy O f Dante's approach to this classic text, Benét's Reader's Encyclopedia T he Divine Comedy is also important for its place in the history of the development of the Italian language. Dante opposed the assumptions of his day that prescribed Latin as the only appropriate language for serious writing. He advocated the use of a courtly Italian enriched with the best of every spoken dialect to form a serious literary language. This would help to unify the separated Italian territories by the creation of a national culture, an end to which Dante strived his entire life. While falling short of his goal of unification, Dante did use his native Tuscan as a basis for several of his works, including

    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) The greatest Italian poet and one of the most important writers of European literature. Dante is best known for the epic poem COMMEDIA, c. 1310-14, later named LA DIVINA COMMEDIA. It has profoundly affected not only the religious imagination but all subsequent allegorical creation of imaginary worlds in literature. Dante spent much of his life traveling from one city to another. This had perhaps more to do with the restless times than his wandering character or fixation on the Odyssey. However, his Commedia can also be called a spiritual travel book. "It were a shameful thing if one should rhyme under the semblance of metaphor or rhetorical similitude, and afterwards, being questioned thereof, should be unable to rid his words of such semblance, unto their right understanding." (from Vita Nuova , c. 1293) Dante Alighieri was born into a Florentine family of noble ancestry. Little is known about Dante's childhood. His mother, Bella degli Abati, died when he was seven years old. His father, Alighiero II, made his living by money-lending and renting of property. After the death of his wife he remarried, but died in the early 1280s, before the future poet reached manhood. Brunetto Latini, a man of letters and a politician, became a father figure for Dante, but later in his Commedia Dante placed Latini in Hell, into the seventh circle, among those who were guilty of "violence against nature" - sodomy.
