March 6, 2021 By Laura Chatellier, FSU '23

make-like-dante-everything-you-need-to-write-something-epic-the-florentine-2021“Before you plunge into your own artistic endeavor, perhaps you’d like to learn more about the man himself. Alexandra Lawrence’s The Divine Dante online course hosted by The British Institute is a six-week guided reading of Dante’s epic work, expertly delivered to make the overwhelming text more manageable and casting light on the many layers of meaning. Starting on March 9, details can be found at theflr.net/divinedantebi. Already made your way through the three canticas? Alexandra is also running Dante and the Visual Arts, a three-session course looking at artistic culture during Dante’s day and how it made its way into his work. The classes will be held on March 11, 18 and 25, providing a visual feast to accompany your deep dive.” [. . .]    –TF x, The Florentine, March 3, 2021.
