Summerizing verses by Massimo Seriacopi
\nIllustrations by Tommaso Levente Tani<\/p>\n
This book tells, in both verses and images, just some episodes and concepts fundamental for the representation of Dante\u2019s pilgrimage to the world of the damned, the purified and the blessed \u2013 otherwise the representation of the poet-prophet\u2019s journey would have ended up being too complex and wordy. It is focused on the episodes most able to express and communicate, to appeal immediately to children\u2019s understanding and imagination\u2026 and also to reach the children who remain within everyones. All of these considerations motivated the choice of language (Dante\u2019s eleven-syllable lines, yet gave up on rhymes: their use seemed too trivial), as well as of forms and colours, and ultimately of the \u201csymbols\u201d which tell everyone about Dante\u2019s poem, its culture and the way of thinking of its time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":715,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[100],"product_tag":[1287],"class_list":["post-714","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-junior-en","product_tag-dante","first","outofstock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
