St. Louis Reads Dante In-Person
St. Louis Reads Dante invites readers of all backgrounds—curious newcomers and seasoned Dante enthusiasts alike—to join a monthly journey through Dante’s Comedy, one canto at a time. Each session brings together undergraduates, scholars, and community members for a guided reading and discussion led by scholars from many different disciplines and research areas. Each session will focus on one canto of Dante's Comedy and will feature a lecture, the reading of the canto in both Italian and English, followed by an audience Q&A.
Whether you're discovering Dante’s epic poem for the first time or returning to it with fresh questions, this is a chance to engage deeply with a work that continues to inspire, provoke, and challenge across time.
Free and open to all, registration is requested.
Co-sponsored by the Department of Romance Languages and Literature.
