And by "read," as in the way it's used in literary studies, I mean "interpret."
We've come through some tough passages, so I thought it would be useful to lay my cards on the table. Or at least most of the trumps. I'll keep a few back for later.
Through Instagram DMs and emails, I've had some amazing conversations about Inferno, Cantos XV and XVI. And I thought, well, I should just lay out these discussions because they lie at the heart of my obsession about poetics in Dante's COMEDY. In a nutshell, here's how I read COMEDY. At least at this moment. No guarantees I won't change my mind.
There are no distinct parts of this podcast episode. Rather, it's a general discussion of my own idiosyncratic overview of COMEDY.
