Reseña del editor:
An accessible new translation, accompanied by notes and introduction, recreates the narrative immediacy of Dante's masterpiece while preserving its theological complexity and Christian passion for the divine
Nota de la solapa:
try, Mr. Zappulla's English Dante is successful--. The power of Dante's descriptive poetry should be apparent, and that is perhaps the highest compliment one can pay a translator."--Washington Times
In this new rendition of a timeless classic, Italian scholar Elio Zappulla captures the majesty and enduring power of the Inferno, the first of the three canticles of Dante's The Divine Comedy, unarguably one of the masterpieces of world literature. Rendering Dante's terza rima into lyrical blank verse, Zappulla's translation makes accessible to the modern reader the journey of the famed Florentine poet Dante through the nine circles of hell. With Virgil at his side, the great poet descends through horrific landscapes of the damned--dark forests, boiling muck, and burning plains filled with unspeakable punishment, lamentation, and terror--depicted with gruesome detail unmatched in all literature. Richly annotated, this translation takes even the firs

Universally acknowledged as the greatest poem of the European Middle Ages, it also marks the first time the vernacular was used in the high Western literary tradition to express ultimate issues of being & transcendence. Uniting the most powerful energies of popular culture & the magnificent Gothic edifice of medieval scholasticism, Dante created a new language that combined an intense lyricism w/ the intellectual seriousness demanded of his project--nothing less than the creation of a Christian epic addressed to the common reader. Dante's synthesis of epic w/ lyric has bequeathed to modern artists & translators a permanent imperative to translate his art into contemporary, living speech. In this brilliant & highly accessible new translation of the "Inferno", Elio Zappulla successfully recreates the immediacy, directness, & psychological force of Dante's original text. Zappulla's faithfulness to Dante's Italian is matched by an unobtrusive & beautifully executed commitment to convey to today's reader, through the lyrical cadences of everyday American English, the emotional & aesthetic impact of what he calls Dante's "complex simplicity". At the same time, the reader is never allowed to lose sight of the "Inferno's" intellectual majesty & moral grandeur. This edition of the "Inferno" is illustrated by the paintings of Gregory Gillespie, a contemporary artist who has been engaged w/ Dante's writings & imaginative world throughout his career. They provide a complimentary means of meditating on the continuing meanings & resonances of one of the defining works of art of the Western tradition. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "An unexpected & glorious gift. The love of Dante comes through in the text--every line carefully, beautifully translated. -Wallace Fowlie, Duke University. "Elio Zappull's highly readable verse translation of Dante's "Inferno" reaches the core of Dante's sense of the real. Zapulla's scholarship is useful in helping the reader approach this masterpiece of world literature. -Giuseppi F. Mazzotta, Yale University * ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR: EMILO ZAPPULLA is the author of several scholarly articles on Dante & Italian literature. He teaches at Dowling College & loves in Stony Brook, New York. * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a nominal additional fee & via efficient USPS FIRST CLASS MAIL to all international shipments at our posted rates.
