This collection of essays by an international group of scholars offers an account        of Dante's reception in a wide range of media: visual art, literature, theatre,        cinema, and music, from the late eighteenth century through to the early twentieth.          It thus explores various appropriations and interpretations of his works and persona        during the era of modernization in Europe, the United States, and beyond. It        includes work by internationally recognized experts and a new generation ofscholars        in the field, and the eighteen essays are grouped in sections which relate both to        themes and regions. The volume begins and ends by addressing Italy's reception of        the national poet, and its other main sections show how a worldwide dialogue with        Dante developed in France, Britain, Germany,the United States, Ireland, India, and        Turkey. The whole collection demonstrates how this dialogue explicitly or implicitly        informed the construction, recovery or re-definition of cultural identity among        various nations, regions and ethnic groups during the 'long nineteenth century'. It        not only aims at wide coverage of the period's voices and concerns, and includes        discussion of well-known writers such as Ugo Foscolo, Giosu Carducci,        Mary Shelley, John Ruskin, George Eliot, CharlesEliot Norton and Ralph Waldo Emerson        - along with a large number of significant but less familiar figures. It also        emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary and multilingual approach to the        subject of Dante and nineteenth-century nationalism, and it will thus be of interest        to scholars and students incomparative literary and nineteenth-century studies, as        well as to those with a general interest in cultural studies and the history of        ideas.
