Dante beyond influence is the first study to conceptualise and
historicise the hermeneutic turn in Dante reception history and
Victorian cultural history, charting its development across
intellectual realms, agents and forms of readerly and writerly
engagement. Unearthing previously unseen manuscript and print
evidence, the book conducts a material and book-historical inquiry
into the formation and popularisation of the critical and scholarly
discourse on Dante through Victorian periodicals, mass-publishing,
traditional and Extramural higher education. The book demonstrates
that the transformation of Dante from object of amateur interest
(dantophilia) to subject of systematic interpretive endeavours
(dantismo) reflected paradigmatic changes in Victorian intellectual
and socio-cultural history. -- .
