Excerpt from Dante and Other Waning Classics I have chosen for critical examination six of the most famous classics of Christendom. These include two highly lauded epic poems of modem times, the Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost; two works the circulation of each of which has been surpassed only by the Bible, the Imitation of Christ and Pilgrim's Progress; a noted religions autobiography, St. Augustine's Confessions and an important product in Christian apologetics, Pascal's Thoughts. These works are saturated in whole or part with theological dogmas that have been discarded by many people to-day. It is my intention to show how medieval fallacies have rained what might otherwise have been perfect literary masterpieces. The passages in these books that still live are the secular ones. These we can still read with enjoyment, but the authors regarded them as subsidiary to the theological intent. I have tried to point out that the literary value of these classics has waned in proportion to the extent and falsity of the theology pervading them. Literature should not be a vehicle for theology. The poet often must describe sensations the theologian fears; he must express ideas the latter dare not think. Theology attaches itself usually to untenable and evanescent dogmas; its spirit is that of restraint; its atmosphere is confining. Literature shuns creeds and edicts and theories; it knows few barriers; it seeks the open. The chief mission of literature is often to undo the evil work wrought by false theologies.

This volume provides the first systematic study of the translation and reception of Dante’s Vita Nova in the Anglophone world, reconstructing for the first time the contexts and genesis of its English-language afterlife from the early nineteenth century to the present day. Dante is one of the foremost authors of the Western canon, and his Vita Nova has been repeatedly translated into English over the past two centuries. However, there exists no comprehensive account of the critical, scholarly, and creative English-language reception of Dante’s work. This collection brings together scholars from Dante studies, translation studies, English studies, and book history to examine the translation and reception of the Vita Nova among modern English-speaking publics, in both academic and non-academic contexts, and thus represents a major contribution to Dante studies. The Afterlife of Dante’s Vita Nova in the Anglophone World will be an essential reference point for scholars and students in English and Italian studies, literary and cultural studies, and translation and reception studies in the UK, Ireland, the USA, and Italy, where Dante is taught and researched.
