Dante Alighieri De sa vie nous retiendrons deux expériences fondamentales du malheur : La douleur du deuil et celle de la trahison politique. Issu d’une famille de petite noblesse commerçante. (son père est agent de change et préteur d’argent) Dante est rapidement orphelin de mère (1275) puis de père (1281). Il est confié à ses (demi-)frères et sœurs A neuf ans il rencontre pour la première fois celle qui devait lui inspirer  « ce qui jamais ne fut dit d’aucune » ; il la retrouve à dix huit ans, elle meurt à 25 ans. sa passion pour la jeune femme se transforme en Amour mystique : Béatrice, symbole de la vertu agissante, source de grandeur d’âme et de dépassement de soi.  En1291 Dante entame des études  philosophico-théologiques(1291-1295) et expose sa conception de la sagesse dans  la Vita nuova   puis dans Il Convivio (le Banquet) (1307) : le bien  moral est la fin de toute activité humaine. Même au sein de ses misères et de ses erreurs, l’amour humain est un amour naturel pour Dieu ; l’homme aimant la beauté aime Dieu sans le connaître. Parallèlement, Dante fait la terrible expérience des soubresauts et revirements politiques. En 1293, une ordonnance de justice retire aux nobles le droit de participer aux affaires publiques ; deux ans plus tard, ce droit n’est restitué qu’à ceux qui renient leur rang en s’inscrivant dans une corporation professionnelle. Dante choisit celle des Apothicaires et des Médecins ( qui est aussi celle des Libraires) et devient rapidement un porte-parole important des

Martino del Vescovo in Florenz geboren. Eltern: Alighiero di Bellincione (gehört zum niederen, guelfisch gesinnter Stadtadel) und Bella (verstirbt früh), Stiefmutter: Lapa di Chiarissimo Cialuffi (übernimmt Dantes Erziehung). um 1285 Einige Zeit nach dem Tod des Vaters (1281 oder 82) heiratet Dante Gemma, eine Tochter der mächtigen Familie Donati. Aus der Ehe gehen 4 Kinder hervor (Giovanni, Pietro, Jacopo, Antonia). Dantes Ausbildung beginnt vermutlich mit dem Unterricht bei einem Privatlehrer in Florenz. Möglicherweise war Brunetto Latini (ca. 1220-1294) einer seiner Lehrer. Eventuell hat er anschließend in Bologna studiert. Dort knüpft er auch erste Beziehungen zu den Dichtern des „neuen Stils“ wie Guido Guinizelli, Cino da Pistoia und Guido Cavalcanti; mit diesem wird ihn eine enge Freundschaft verbinden. Als Berittener nimmt Dante an der Schlacht von Campaldino gegen Arezzo und die toskanischen Ghibellinen teil, die Florenz den Sieg und der ghibellinischen Partei den Untergang beschert.

It is the tale of the poet's journey through Hell and Purgatory (guided by Vergil) and through Heaven (guided by Beatrice, to whom the poem is a memorial.) Written in a complex pentameter form, terza rima , it is a magnificent synthesis of the medieval outlook, picturing a changeless universe ordered by God. Through it Dante established Tuscan as the literary language of Italy and gave rise to a vast literature.

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.

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... D > Dante Alighieri A B C D ... Z Dante Alighieri 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.

Dante Alighieri on the Web Online Bibliographies on Dante Fantastic Imaginations: Dalí and Dante Digital Dante ... Dante's Inferno Dante Alighieri, called Dante, wrote the poetic masterpiece La Divina Commedia , or The Divine Comedy , which helped establish his native Tuscan dialect as the literary language of Italy. He is not only Italy's preeminent poet but, along with Shakespeare , one of the towering figures of Western literature. This primacy is accorded him because of his profound understanding of medieval thought, his mastery of complex technical skills, and the dramatic range and originality of his imagination. Dante's life spanned the troubled years of the late Middle Ages, in which the long struggle between pope and emperor for supremacy in Italy reached its most acute phase, and in which the concept of nationalism, exemplified by the growing power of the French monarchy, was displacing the medieval vision of a united Christendom. Deeply involved in the issues and events of his day, Dante reflected in his writings the aspirations and anxieties of his contemporaries, while projecting into them a universal and timeless dimension. Of a middle-class Florentine family with some pretensions to ancient nobility, Dante received a good education both in the classics and in scholastic Christian literature. At a very early age he began to write poetry, largely love lyrics (canzoni) in the style of Guido Guinizelli and Guido Cavalcanti. The most memorable events of his youth were his two encounters (1274 and 1283) with Beatrice Portinari, to whom he remained spiritually devoted for the rest of his life in a metaphysical transformation of the tradition of courtly love popularized by the Provencal troubadours despite his own marriage (c. 1285) to Gemma Donati (which produced several children) and Beatrice's to Simon de'Bardi. The progression of his love for her was embodied in the love poetry of his first book

Dante Alighieri 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. During his exile from Florence he sought and received refuge and protection from a branch of the Malaspina family in Mulazzo and pays tribute to this in his Purgatorio Already Dante had written his first book, the "Vita Nuova", or "New Life", an exquisite medley of lyrical verse and poetic prose, telling the story of his love for Beatrice, whom he had first seen at the end of his ninth year. Beatrice, who was probably the daughter of Folco Portinari, and wife of Simone de' Bardi, died in June, 1290, and the "Vita Nuova" was completed about the year 1294. Dante's love for her was purely spiritual and mystical, the amor amicitiae defined by St. Thomas Aquinas : "That which is loved in love of friendship is loved simply and for its own sake". Its resemblance to the chivalrous worship that the troubadours offered to married women is merely superficial. The book is dedicated to the Florentine poet, Guido Cavalcanti, whom Dante calls "the first of my friends", and ends with the promise of writing concerning Beatrice "what has never before been written of any woman". A few years before his exile Dante had married Gemma di Manetto Donati, a distant kinswoman of Corso, by whom he had four children. He never saw his wife again; but his sons, Pietro and Jacopo, and one of his daughters, Beatrice, joined him in later years. At first, he made common cause with his fellow-exiles at Siena

At the age of nine, Dante was introduced to Bice, or Beatrice, Portinari in 1274. According to studies by Boccacio, her death in 1290 propelled him to begin an intensive study in the philosophical works of Boethius, Cicero, and Aristotle. In fact, Beatrice is alluded to in several of his other works but specifically The Divine Comedy where she is commemorated as the ideal lady who guides him to redemption in Paradiso . However, it is often criticized that Beatrice was actually a term that Dante used as a representative of the perfect, holy female. Nonetheless, the death urged Dante to break free from his earlier directed writing style and establish his own style in innovative canzoni, or lyrical poems.

Enter e-mail address: Search GradeSaver dictionary thesaurus Hosted by pair Networks Biography of Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) Dante is one of the greatest poets in the Italian language; with the comic story-teller Boccaccio and the poet Petrarch, he forms the classic trio of Italian authors. Dante Alighieri was born in the city-state Florence in 1265. He first saw the woman, or rather the child, who was to become the poetic love of his life when he was almost nine years old and she was some months younger. In fact, Beatrice married another man, Simone di' Bardi, and died when Dante was 25, so their relationship existed almost entirely in Dante's imagination, but she nonetheless plays an extremely important role in his poetry. Dante attributed all the heavenly virtues to her soul and imagined, in his masterpiece The Divine Comedy, that she was his guardian angel who alternately berated and encouraged him on his search for salvation. Dante never returned to Florence. He wandered from city to city, depending on noble patrons there. Between 1302 and 1304 some attempts were made by the exiled Whites to retrieve their position in Florence, but none of these succeeded and Dante contented himself with hoping for the appearance of a new powerful Holy Roman Emperor who would unite the country and banish strife. Henry VII was elected Emperor in 1308, and indeed laid seige to Florence in 1312, but was defeated, and he died a year later, destroying Dante's hopes. Dante passed from court to court, writing passionate political and moral epistles and finishing his Divine Comedy, which contains the Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. He finally died in Ravenna in 1321.

16. Dante Alighieri, 1265-1321 Dante Alighieri, 12651321. That singular splendor of the Italianrace, as his first biographer, Boccaccio, called him, was born http://www.historyguide.org/ancient/dante.html

Dante Alighieri, 1265-1321 "That singular splendor of the Italian race," as his first biographer, Boccaccio, called him, was born, a lawyer's son, in Florence in May 1265. He was baptized Durante, later contracted into Dante (the name means "the much-enduring" and "the giver"). In his Vita Nuova (the New Life ), he relates how he first set eyes on "the glorious lady of his heart, Beatrice," he then being about nine years of age and she a few months younger. To Boccaccio we owe the generally accepted fact that she was the daughter of Folco Portinari, for Dante himself never gives the slightest clue as to her family name. But their chance meeting in May 1274 determined the whole future course of the poet's life. The story of his boyish passion is told with pathos in the Vita Nuova . There is no evidence that any similar feelings were aroused in the heart of Beatrice herself. She was married early to Simone de' Bardi, but neither this nor the poet's own subsequent marriage interfered with his pure and utterly Platonic devotion to her, which intensified after her death, on June 9, 1290. Shortly after, Dante married Gemma Donati, the daughter of a powerful Guelph family. That it was an unhappy marriage is open to interpretation what is certain is that after Dante's exile he never appears to have seen his wife again. In 1289 Dante fought at Campaldino, where Florence defeated the Ghibellines, and was at the capitulation of Caprona. He was registered in one of the city guilds (of the Apothecaries) being entered as "Dante d'Aldighieri

Dante Alighieri P oeta, prosista, teórico de la literatura, filósofo y pensador político italiano. Está considerado como una de las figuras más sobresalientes de la literatura universal, admirado por su espiritualidad y por su profundidad intelectual. Dante nació en Florencia, en los últimos días de mayo o los primeros de junio del año 1265, en el seno de una familia que pertenecía a la pequeña nobleza. Su madre murió cuando todavía era pequeño, y su padre al cumplir los 18 años. El acontecimiento más importante de esta trágica juventud, según su propio testimonio, fue conocer, en el año 1274, a Beatriz, la mujer a quien amó y que exaltó como símbolo supremo de la gracia divina, primero en La vida nueva y, más tarde, en su obra maestra, La Divina Comedia . Los especialistas han identificado a Bice di Folco como la noble florentina Bice di Folco Portinari, que murió en 1290, con apenas 20 años. Dante sólo la vio en tres ocasiones y nunca habló con ella, pero eso fue suficiente para que se convirtiera en la musa inspiradora de casi toda su obra. Se sabe muy poco acerca de la educación de Dante, aunque sus libros reflejan una vasta erudición que comprendía casi todo el conocimiento de su época. En sus comienzos ejercieron una gran influencia sobre él las obras del filósofo y retórico Brunetto Latini, que aparece, por otro lado, como personaje destacado en La Divina Comedia . Se sabe que, hacia 1285, se encontraba en Bolonia, y se supone que estudió en la universidad de esa ciudad. Durante las luchas políticas que tuvieron lugar en la Italia de esos años, se unió en un principio al bando de los güelfos, opuestos a los gibelinos. En 1289 formaba parte del ejército güelfo de la ciudad de Florencia que combatió en la batalla de Campaldino, en la que los güelfos de Florencia vencieron a los gibelinos de Pisa y Arezzo. Por esa misma época se casó con Gemma di Manetto Donati, perteneciente a una destacada familia güelfa florentina.

DANTE ALIGHIERI (1265-1321) Nasce a Firenze nel 1265. Il padre, che svolgeva una piccola attività di cambiatore e prestatore di denari, vantava ascendenti nobili. Lo stesso Dante, nel Paradiso , fa risalire le sue origini a Cacciaguerra, un trisavolo vissuto nel XII sec., che morì combattendo i musulmani durante la IIa crociata. La famiglia quindi era della piccola nobiltà (le rendite erano derivate anche dal possesso di alcuni terreni e case). Questo permise a Dante di non svolgere alcuna attività lavorativa e di dedicarsi liberamente agli studi e ai divertimenti propri delle persone del suo ceto. La sua prima formazione intellettuale consiste in studi di grammatica e logica. Studiò retorica con Brunetto Latini e ancora giovanissimo si dedicò alla poesia divenendo amico di Guido Cavalcanti e Lapo Gianni. Le sue Rime furono soprattutto dedicate ad esaltare -secondo la maniera del Dolce Stilnovo- una donna: Beatrice (forse Bice di Folco Portinari), morta nel 1290. Dedicata completamente a lei è anche la Vita Nuova (1293), dopodiché Dante s'orienta verso gli studi filosofici e teologici.
