The World of Dante

Dante and Virgil with Ovid, Homer, Lucan, and Horace; the castle of Limbo
Created by Priamo della Quercia

Created by Italian professor Deborah Parker while a fellow with the University’s Institute for Advanced Technologies in the Humanities, this Web site brings Dante Alighieri’s “Divine Comedy” to life through hundreds of images that are accessible through tagged text (in both Italian and English). A grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities will allow Parker to expand the site to include Dante’s “Purgatory” and “Paradise.”
