The book analyses the medieval vision of the world as depicted in
Dante Alighieri's poetic works. In detail it discusses two works,
The Banquet and The Divine Comedy, and offers a view on politics,
faith and the universe of the medieval period. For modern people
that period with its debates, polemics and visions represents
something exceedingly remote, obscure and unknown. While admiring
Dante's poetic artistry, we often fail to recognize the
inspirations that permeated the works of medieval scholars and
poets. Although times are constantly changing, every generation has
to face the same fundamental questions of meaning, purpose and
value of human existence: Dante's cosmological and poetical picture
turns out to be surprisingly universal.
