Sebbene moltissimi siano oramai gli studi di vari autori dedicati all’analisi della presenza della matematica nell’opera di Dante e in particolare nella Divina Commedia, con grande stupore ci si ...accorge che esiste sempre qualche angolo inesplorato o qualche verso che può ancora fornire argomento di riflessione e di studio; lo stupore cessa ogni volta, quando si riflette sulla grandezza dell’opera. Volendo anche solo fare brevi cenni alle diverse discipline che costituiscono la matematica, sarebbe impossibile contenerli in poche pagine; rinvio dunque ad altre mie analisi su geometria, logica e probabilità (D’AMORE, 1991, 1993, 1995, 2020), e mi limito a due-tre spunti sull’aritmetica e sulla geometria.

최근 패션계에는 문학에서 영감을 받는 사례가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 패션에 표현된 문학의 특성 및 경향을 밝히는 것이다. 특히 다양한 예술에 지대한 영감을 준 대표적인 문학인 단테의 신곡을 중심으로 분석하였다. 연구방법은 패션과 문학에 관한 전문서적과 선행연구를 바탕으로 한 문헌연구와 관련기사의 사진과 텍스트를 내용 분석하였다. 연구결과 첫째, ...문학은 패션계에서 단순히 디자인의 주제로 사용되는 것을 넘어 액세서리 역할 혹은 브랜드의 이미지나 판매를 위한 마케팅 도구로 사용되고 있었다. 둘째, 회화와 건축, 조각 등의 예술 분야에서는 신곡의 장면을 사실적으로 혹은 과장하여 묘사하고, 구도 면에서 작가의 상상력을 더한 참신함을 보였다. 음악분야에서는 숫자 3과 그의 배수로 정교하게 구성된 신곡의 구조를 응용하거나, 천국과 지옥의 대조적인 분위기를 단조, 장조 혹은 연주와 합창 등으로 묘사했다. 셋째, 단테의 신곡에서 영감 받은 패션 컬렉션에 나타난 특성은, 단테가 표현한 그대로의 주제보다는 종교, 전쟁과의 연상 혹은 디자이너가 겪는 창작의 고통 등으로 확장되어 나타났다. 또한 지옥의 장면에 등장하는 동물들을 3D형식을 사용하여 그대로 묘사하기도 했지만, 얼굴에 붙인 은 장미 가시, 십자가에 못 박힌 예수 형상이 달린 마스크, 뿔, 새 발톱목걸이, 해골 손이 부착된 헤드피스 등의 액세서리 디자인으로 단테의 신곡을 넘어서는 창의성을 보였다. 모든 예술분야에서 단테의 신곡을 다루는 방식은 지옥일지라도 서정적이고 낭만적인 경향을 보였다. 본 연구가 늘 새로운 창의성에 목마른 패션계에서 참고할만한 실질적인 메시지가 되기를 고대한다.
In recent years, the fashion industry has increasingly drawn inspiration from literature. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the characteristics and trends of literature as expressed in fashion. Specifically, the analysis focuses on Dante's La Divina Commedia, a work that has profoundly inspired various arts. The research method involved a literature review based on specialized books and prior studies on fashion and literature, as well as content analysis of related articles’ photos and texts. Firstly, literature in the fashion industry is utilized not only as a theme for design but also as an accessory or a marketing tool to enhance a brand's image and sales. Secondly, in the fields of painting, architecture, and sculpture, scenes from La Divina Commedia are depicted either realistically or exaggeratedly, showing innovative compositions infused with the artist's imagination. In the music field, the intricate structure of La Divina Commedia, organized around the number 3 and its multiples, is adapted, and the contrasting atmospheres of heaven and hell are depicted through minor and major keys, instrumental, and choral arrangements. Thirdly, fashion collections inspired by Dante's La Divina Commedia exhibit characteristics that extend beyond the original themes to include associations with religion, war, or the creative agony experienced by designers. While some collections directly depict animals from the inferno in 3D formats, others demonstrate creativity beyond the text with accessory designs such as silver rose thorns attached to the face, a mask adorned with the figure of the crucified Jesus, horns, bird claw necklaces, and headpieces with skeletal hands. The approach to Dante’s La Divina Commedia across all art forms tends to be lyrical and romantic, even when depicting hell. This study aims to provide practical insights for the fashion industry, which is constantly in search of new creativity.

TheDivine Comedyof Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) is one of the seminal works of western literature. Its impact on modern culture has been enormous, nourishing a plethora of twentieth century authors ...from Joyce and Borges to Kenzaburo Oe. Although Dante's influence in the literary sphere is well documented, very little has been written on his equally determining role in the evolution of the visual media unique to our times, namely, cinema and television.Dante, Cinema, and Televisioncorrects this oversight.
The essays, from a broad range of disciplines, cover the influence of theDivine Comedyfrom cinema's silent era on through to the era of sound and the advent of television, as well as its impact on specific directors, actors, and episodes, on national/regional cinema and television, and on genres. They also consider the different modes of appropriation by cinema and television.Dante, Cinema, and Televisiondemonstrates the many subtle ways in which Dante'sDivine Comedyhas been given 'new life' by cinema and television, and underscores the tremendous extent of Dante's staying power in the modern world.
Se l’esistenza letteraria dell’Argentina iniziava con l’Indipendenza, ciò significava non avere radici e fondamenta nel passato. La Divina Commedia finiva per costituire una solida base di civiltà: ...Dante, quindi, con il suo poema, legittimato da Mitre attraverso la sua traduzione, è introdotto a pieno titolo nella storia culturale del paese.Dante Legitimized in Mitre’s Argentina Since Argentinian literature started with Independence, it does not have roots in the past. Dante’s Divine Comedy was thus often used as a solid basis for civilization. Through Mitre’s translation, Dante’s poem became part of the cultural history of Argentina.
In a masterly synthesis of historical and literary analysis, Giuseppe Mazzotta shows how medieval knowledge systems--the cycle of the liberal arts, ethics, politics, and theology--interacted with ...poetry and elevated the Divine Comedy to a central position in shaping all other forms of discursive knowledge. To trace the circle of Dante's intellectual concerns, Mazzotta examines the structure and aims of medieval encyclopedias, especially in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries; the medieval classification of knowledge; the battle of the arts; the role of the imagination; the tension between knowledge and vision; and Dante's theological speculations in his constitution of what Mazzotta calls aesthetic, ludic theology. As a poet, Dante puts himself at the center of intellectual debates of his time and radically redefines their configuration. In this book, Mazzotta offers powerful new readings of a poet who stands amid his culture's crisis and fragmentation, one who responds to and counters them in his work. In a critical gesture that enacts Dante's own insight, Mazzotta's practice is also a fresh contribution to the theoretical literary debates of the present.
