The initiative proposed by the Third University examines the figure of Dante Alighieri through the lens of civic engagement. The course aims to explore the poet’s determination to denounce the evils of his time and to call for moral redemption—themes that remain relevant today. The program includes a study of the author’s life, delving into lesser-known biographical aspects—such as his relationships with his father, his children, and Beatrice—to paint a human portrait that goes beyond the mythical dimension.
This in-depth analysis will focus on the characteristics of the *Comedìa*, a work conceived to bring about social renewal, through a reading and commentary on the cantos dedicated to civic themes.
