| The Italian text is from
Mandelbaum, Allen. Inferno. University of
California Press, 1980. The two English translations are by Mandelbaum and Robert Pinsky: Pinsky, Robert. Inferno: A New Verse Translation. 1996. The commentaries are from the Dartmouth Dante Project, directed by Robert Hollander of Princeton University. The Dartmouth Dante Project is an attempt to present Dante criticism of encyclopedic breadth and depth in the digital medium. See http://www.princeton.edu/~dante/dante2.html for more information. The video clips are from Peter Greenaway's A Television Dante(1989), produced by: Vpro, CAL Videographics Ltd., Channel Four (UK), Dante B.V., Elsevier-Vendex, K.G.P., Artifax, RM Associates The homepage image and the background images represent drawings by Barry Moser, who illustrated Mandelbaum's text. The image at right, as well as the featured images in the frames, represent drawings by Gustav Dore, (1832-1883), perhaps the most famous illustrator of the 19th century. The author of Inferno, and the man in the portrait at right, is none other than Dante Alighieri. |
