"Sin and Death in Dante: From Limbo to the Lowest Circles of Hell"

Roberto Pesce, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Modern Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics, University of Oklahoma

Over the doorway of Hell, in Dante’s Inferno, are the words: “Abandon all hope, you who enter here.” Dr. Pesce’s talk will focus on the first and the last sinners visited by Dante, to explore how the great Italian poet developed his cosmic view of human sinfulness.

The Medieval Fair Free Lecture Series is Co-sponsored by the Center for Medieval & Renaissance Studies at the University of Oklahoma. Lectures start at 6:15 p.m. and the Medieval Fair of Norman is April 5th-7th 2019.
