Dante's Testaments: Essays in Scriptural Imagination - Figurae: Reading Medieval Culture
Peter S. Hawkins
This book explores the wide range of Dante's reading and the extent to which he transformed what he read, whether in the biblical canon, in the ancient Latin poets, in such Christian authorities as Augustine or Benedict, or in the "book of the world"-the globe traversed by pilgrims and navigators.
