Reading Dante: The Pursuit of Meaning examines the problem of
determining the thematic unity of Dante's Divina Commedia in the
history of Dante studies. The question of unity has puzzled Dante
readers for centuries, due to an apparent discrepancy between
Dante's construction of the afterworld and medieval Christian
teachings on the conditions of the afterlife. If all sins condemned
in Hell can be forgiven, we would expect to see them purged in
Purgatory and their virtuous opposite celebrated in Paradise. In
Dante's account, however, the three realms of the afterlife appear
as self-contained entities with only partially related structures
that undermine the establishment of thematic correspondences and
the determination of the poem's thematic unity. Was Dante
inconsistent in his exposition of the divine order, or have Dante
scholars been inconsistent in their treatment of the poem's
thematic content? Jesper Hede examines the prevalent strategies of
reading applied by Dante scholars in their attempt to solve the
problem of unity. Detailing the major contributions to the
resolution of the problem and focusing on medieval philosophy and
modern hermeneutics, Hede argues that a systematic parallel reading
of the poem's three parts reveals that it is the vision of divine
order that gives the poem its thematic unity.
