Purgatory: Canto 21 -- Praise of Virgil
Purgatory: Canto 21 - Praise of Virgil. Sunday, March 06, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 21, The Fifth Cornice - Statius. For those who haven't read the Thebiad. Which was enough, it seems, to have provided for Statius's salvation in his having read it, but not enough to provide for Virgil's in his having written it. After the introductions have been made and Statius has explained more of the nature of the mountain, he adds that he was one of the "more than a thousand poets" kindled by the flame of the Aeneid.

Purgatory: Canto 22- Sixth Cornice: The Gluttonous. Thursday, March 10, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 22 - The Sixth Cornice, The Whip of the Gluttons. Blessed are those who thirst after righteousness.". As for the progress of the soul, let's invest a moment learning from Statius. Statius says that Virgil saved him twice - both of which kept him out of the 4th circle of hell where the hoarders and wasters crash rocks against one another. In the first case, he read the lines of Virgil's Aeneid. Every artistic en...

Purgatory: Canto 25 -- Seventh Cornice: The Soul's Progress
Purgatory: Canto 25 - Seventh Cornice: The Soul's Progress. Sunday, March 13, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 25, The Ascent to the Seventh Circle. Ended the 1,400-year reign of Galen's anatomy. In 1628 with the publication of De motu cordis. In this, Dante and Pope have found common purpose of expression, for Pope begins his fourth epistle in exhortation:. Take Nature's path, and mad opinions leave;. All states can reach it, and all heads conceive;. Obvious her goods, in no extreme they dwell;. Posted by Sebasti...

Purgatory: Canto 28 -- The River Lethe
Purgatory: Canto 28 - The River Lethe. Wednesday, March 16, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 28 - The Earthly Paradise: The River Lethe. Matilda, as a representative of the active life, is meant to prepare us for the contemplative life, just as Lethe, which is the river of sin's forgetfulness, is meant to prepare us for Eunoe, which is the river of good's memory. While Dante expresses no desire for this woman in the garden beyond knowing of her and her state, he berates himself in his Vita Nuova.

Purgatory: Canto 29 -- Triumph of the Church
Purgatory: Canto 29 - Triumph of the Church. Thursday, March 17, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 29 - The Heavenly Pageant. If MacAllister is right and the Purgatorio. Dante's waltz with Matilda parallels his discernment over the woman with the compassionate eyes, the one who engages him with her look, and he decides she must be gracious and that a love might be found. He writes of her in Canto 38 of La Vita Nuova. Posted by Sebastian Mahfood at 7:58 PM. Purgatory: Canto 29 - The Heavenly Pageant.

Purgatory: Canto 31 -- The Confession of Dante
Purgatory: Canto 31 - The Confession of Dante. Saturday, March 19, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 31 - Lethe - Beatrice and Matilda. Well, my audience was probably wondering whether, like Virgil, I'd disappeared from this board after being lost in the piney woods of East Texas. I would like to announce first that my family and I have arrived safely at my uncle's house and that the postings will continue as though uninterrupted by my travels.

Purgatory: Canto 32 -- The Tree of Knowledge
Purgatory: Canto 32 - The Tree of Knowledge. Sunday, March 20, 2005. Purgatory: Canto 32 - Beatrice Unveiled. Palm Sunday - the triumphant entry of Christ into Jerusalem, hailed as its king and liberator! The heavenly pageant, both Dante and Statius (who has also crossed Lethe) notice, heads East into the risen sun and the allegory of the corruption of the Church through the wealth it has accumulated since the alleged Donation of Constantine is played out on the spot where Dante stands. But he does so ou...

Heaven: Canto 2 -- The First Heaven: The Moon
Heaven: Canto 2 - The First Heaven: The Moon. Saturday, March 27, 2004. The First Sphere - the Man on the Moon. Having proven himself a chemist in his understanding of the principles by which helium works on air in the previous canto, Dante now proves himself an astronomer in his explanation of how the moon is marked - while he was right in the Convivio.
