Excerpt from Dante and Catholic Philosophy in the Thirteenth Century Desirous of enlightening those who lived in the shade or in the gloom, Dante chanted the grandest of poems in a vulgar tongue. Even the lyre of his Master, Virgil, seemed too small for him who aspired, through a perfect art, to be a perpetual and universal teacher of Christian truth. Putting aside Latin, and choosing Italian as the medium of his verse, the poet did wisely; and yet the use of a living language has not made him a poet of the people. We have all read the pretty tales, recounting how the simplest of Italian folk were wont to please themselves as they labored, and, at the same time, to astonish ingenuous barbarians, by singing intelligently whole cantos of the Divine Comedy; but vainly shall we seek the names of these intellectual proletarians. Boccaccio would not risk an interpretation of Dante's masterpiece, before invoking, with the greatest humility, the assistance of the God of Light. Five centuries have passed since Boccaccio's famous and imperfect essay. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Dante and Heterodoxy: The Temptations of 13th Century Radical Thought, edited and with an introduction by Maria Luisa Ardizzone, collects several studies devoted to discussing Dante’s work in the light of the intellectual debate that developed in thirteenth century Europe after the entrance of new Aristotelian learning and the diffusion of Greek-Arabic thought, in particular the Latin translations of works by Ibn Rushd (Averroes). What takes form in the various articles is the emerging of an interest in the philosophical and scientific contents of Dante’s opus. Heterodoxy in this volume is thus linked to, but not always coincident with, what medieval scholars such as Ferdinand Van Steenberghen or Alain De Libera term “radical Aristotelianism” or “Integral Aristotelianism”. The word “temptations”, as its meaning clearly shows, delineates not an organic link with heterodox or radical ideas, but rather an intermittent inclination to include or evaluate themes related to these ideas. “Temptations” implies a search, an interrogation that consists of the doubts and uncertainties of a poet strongly involved in the intellectual debate of his time and culture, and for whom philosophy and theology are not fields of opposition but different modes of inquiry.
