Dante's Paradiso and the Limitations of Modern Criticism: A Study of Style and Poetic Theory
Kirkpatrick, Robin (University College Dublin)
In this 1978 book, Dr Kirkpatrick argues that to appreciate Paradiso, we need to recognise that poetry can not only dramatise thought, but also offer a thorough analysis of religious and philosophical belief. He demonstrates how Dante's adoption of analytical language influences the organisation of his poem and his handling of word and image.
