Mandelbaum's translation, w/ facing original text & w/ illustrations by Barry Moser, has been praised by Robert Fagles as "exactly what we have waited for these years, a Dante w/ clarity, eloquence, terror, & profoundly moving depths," & by the late James Merrill as "lucid & strong . . . w/ rich orchestration . . . overall sweep & felicity . . . & countless free, brilliant, utterly Dantesque strokes." Charles Simic called the work "a miracle. A lesson in the art of translation & a model (an encyclopedia) for poets. The full range & richness of American English is displayed as perhaps never before." This collection of commentaries on the first part of the Comedy consists of commissioned essays, one for each canto, by a distinguished group of international scholar-critics.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. An attractive new alternative as both a translation and a pedagogical tool. The volume includes an excellent introduction by Dante scholar Steven Botterill (Univ. of California, Berkeley), clear and informative notes by lifelong Dantist Anthony Oldcorn, a concise bibliographical note that indicates some important sources on Dante in print and online, and a diagram of Hell; Index of the Damned lists characters who appear in the canticle. The translator's preface explains Lombardo's choices as he faced the always-challenging task of rendering Dante's poetry into English. Among the most interesting choices are the occasional use of rhyme--especially in key passages and at the end of each canto, where interlocking rhymes that mimic Dante's terza rima are consistently employed--and an emphasis on creating a version that works well as an oral presentation, following the long tradition of private, public, and theatrical readings of the poem. The volume includes the original Italian text, thus facilitating classroom references and comparisons. --Rebecca West (Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, University of Chicago) in Choice This edition offers a bilingual text and features a new translation of the best known canticle of The Divine Comedy by the accomplished translator of Virgil's Aeneid and Homer's Iliad and Odyssey .

Readers of Dante will find this "Purgatorio" volume an enlightening & indispensable guide, the kind of lucid commentary that is truly adapted to the general reader as well as the student & scholar. This new critical volume, the second to appear in the three-volume Lectura Dantis, contains expert, focused commentary on the "Purgatorio" by 33 international scholars, ea. presenting to the nonspecialist reader one of the cantos of the transitional middle cantica of Dante's unique Christian epic. The cast of characters is as colorful as before, although this time most of them are headed for salvation. The canto-by-canto commentary allows each contributor his or her individual voice, resulting in a deeper, richer awareness of Dante's timeless aspirations & achievements, illustrating & elucidating Dante's trenchant though subtle theology, as well as his extraordinary poetic ability to bring the temporary denizens of the second realm of the dead to vivid exemplary life.* ABOUT THE GENERAL EDITORS: ANTHONY OLDCORN, Professor & Chair of Italian Studies at Brown University; CHARLES ROSS, Professor of English & Comparative Literature at Purdue University, here join w/ National Book Award winner ALLEN MANDELBAUM (W.R.
