Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. As one of the dominating names in Western literature, Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) has also been read and studied with great enthusiasm in the Nordic countries. His masterpiece, "The Divine Comedy" has been translated into Nordic languages several times and over the last few decades many introductions and popular monographs have been published. Moreover, the interest seems to be increasing: Dante's works are studied across different disciplines -- within Italian and comparative literature, theology, philosophy and the history of ideas -- to the extent that we can now talk of a new generation of dantisti among Nordic scholars. The anthology consists of proceedings from the Third Conference of the Nordic Dante Network at the University of Oslo, September 2006. As such it paints a clear picture of what is currently going on within Dante studies in the Nordic countries: the domestic readings are the result of a fruitful dialogue within international scholarship, whilst concurrently having their own individual characteristics.The opening chapter is written by one of the world's leading Dante scholars, Giuseppe Mazzotta, Sterling Professor at Yale University and the current President of the American Dante Society.

Paperback. Condición: New. Petrarch (Francesco Petrarca, 1304-74), best known for his influential collection of Italian lyric poetry dedicated to his beloved Laura, was also a remarkable classical scholar, a deeply religious thinker and a philosopher of secular ethics. In this wide-ranging study, chapters by leading scholars view Petrarch's life through his works, from the epic Africa to the Letter to Posterity, from the Canzoniere to the vernacular epic Triumphi. Petrarch is revealed as the heir to the converging influences of classical cultural and medieval Christianity, but also to his great vernacular precursor, Dante, and his friend, collaborator and sly critic, Boccaccio. Particular attention is given to Petrach's profound influence on the Humanist movement and on the courtly cult of vernacular love poetry, while raising important questions as to the validity of the distinction between medieval and modern and what is lost in attempting to classify this elusive figure. …

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The Avignon papacy (13091377) represented the zenith of papal power in Europe. The Roman curia's move to southern France enlarged its bureaucracy, centralized its authority, and initiated closer contact with secular institutions. The pope's presence also attracted leading minds to Avignon, transforming a modest city into a cosmopolitan center of learning. But a crisis of legitimacy was brewing among leading thinkers of the day. The Avignon Papacy Contested considers the work of six fourteenth-century writers who waged literary war against the Catholic Church's increasing claims of supremacy over secular rulers-a conflict that engaged contemporary critics from every corner of Europe.Unn Falkeid uncovers the dispute's origins in Dante's Paradiso and Monarchia, where she identifies a sophisticated argument for the separation of church and state. In Petrarch's writings she traces growing concern about papal authority, precipitated by the curia's exile from Rome. Marsilius of Padua's theory of citizen agency indicates a resistance to the pope's encroaching power, which finds richer expression in William of Ockham's philosophy of individual liberty. Both men were branded as heretics. The mystical writings of Birgitta of Sweden and Catherine of Siena, in Falkeid's reading, contain cloaked confrontations over papal ethics and church governance even though these women were later canonized.While each of the six writers responded creatively to the implications of the Avignon papacy, they shared a concern for the breakdown of secular order implied by the expansion of papal power and a willingness to speak their minds. Unn Falkeid considers the work of six fourteenth-century writers who waged literary war against the Avignon papacys increasing claims of supremacy over secular rulersa conflict that engaged contemporary critics from every corner of Europe. She illuminates arguments put forth by Dante, Petrarch, William of Ockham, Catherine of Siena, and others.
