Workshop: Dante's Antipurgatorio VII
The Center for Italian Studies and the Devers Family Program in Dante Studies will host a series of workshops on the first nine cantos of Dante's Purgatorio and associated themes.
The main aim of the series is to begin to assess the functions, structures, and principal concerns of the "Ante-Purgatory," arguably the most original section of Dante's afterlife.
In this seventh session, Professor Anna Pegoretti (Roma Tre) will discuss cognition and persuasion in the Antipurgatorio.
Other workshop participants are: Zygmunt Barański (Notre Dame), Theodore J. Cachey, Jr. (Notre Dame), George Corbett (St Andrews), Caroline Dormmor (Oxford), James C. Kriesel (Villanova), Giuseppe Ledda (Bologna), Federica Pich (Trento), and Heather Webb (Cambridge).
Participation in this workshop is by invitation only.
