Dante's political thought has long constituted a major area of
interest for Dante studies, yet the poet's political views have
traditionally been considered a self-contained area of study and
viewed in isolation from the poet's other concerns. Consequently,
the symbolic and poetic values which Dante attaches to political
structures have been largely ignored or marginalised by Dante
criticism. This omission is addressed here by Claire Honess, whose
study of Dante's poetry of citizenship focuses on more fundamental
issues, such as the relationship between the individual and the
community, the question of what it means to be a citizen, and above
all the way in which notions of cities and citizenship enter the
imagery and structure of the Commedia.
