Hell, Purgatory, Paradise: Divine Comedy Like You’ve Never Seen It
Who never thought of that masterpiece Dante, PUSH Divine comedy, was it a demanding and almost incomprehensible job? Pages and pages of explanations to understand the trinity. Already Vittorio Sermonti in the late 1980s he read and commented on Cento Canti alla radio, making them understandable for many; and thenand Roberto Benigni Lhe brought me inside theatre and in TV making Dante much more nice and approachable than you might think. But Mondadori did something else:
found a way to introduce Dante to those who never read him, to those who never understood him, to those who never loved him.
As?
By involving the most important Italian designer of the new generations and a professor who is also a great writer and a great enthusiast of the Great Poet.
Professor Franco Nembrini, who has been organizing highly attended seminars and meetings on Dante for years, explains and tells the story Comedy with passion which is transferred to readers of all ages az every cultural entity. Alessandro D’Avenia he signs the introduction to three songs. Every song has prologue to read, original text Dante’s and in contrast one paraphrase in contemporary Italianwithout links to heavy and academic notes.
Each canto is opened by one wonderful table which illustrates its contents in a style from author’s comic. Because the author of the plates is one of the most important comic artists in the world: Gabriele Dell’Otto, who designed the tables and covers of the most famous Super heroes and cooperate with Miracle AND DC Comics.
