Kompletní popis

This book investigates the place of error in the moral and aesthetic system of Dante's Comedy. It argues that his delight in finely wrought patterns does not exclude an interest in patterns of disorder, that his pursuit of harmony intensifies his interest in dissonance. The three central chapters of the book each examine a different type of error or anomaly: a mismeasured giant, a self-defeating experiment, an erring citation of Virgil. This account of Dante gives priority to wit and self-irony rather than didactic seriousness.
