The Oxford Handbook of Dante contains forty-four specially written chapters that provide a thorough and creative reading of Dante's oeuvre. It gathers an intergenerational and international team of scholars encompassing diverse approaches from the fields of Anglo-American, Italian, and continental scholarship and spanning several disciplines: philology, material culture, history, religion, art history, visual studies, theory from the classical to the contemporary, queer, post- and de-colonial, and feminist studies. The volume combines a rigorous reassessment of Dante's formation, themes, and sources, with a theoretically up-to-date focus on textuality, thereby offering a new critical Dante. The volume is divided into seven sections: 'Texts and Textuality'; 'Dialogues'; 'Transforming Knowledge'; Space(s) and Places'; 'A Passionate Selfhood'; 'A Non-linear Dante'; and 'Nachleben'. It seeks to challenge the Commedia-centric approach (the conviction that notwithstanding its many contradictions, Dante's works move towards the great reservoir of poetry and ideas that is the Commedia), in order to bring to light a non-teleological way in which these works relate amongst themselves. Plurality and the openness of interpretation appear as Dante's very mark, coexisting with the attempt to create an all-encompassing mastership. The Handbook suggests what is exciting about Dante now and indicate where Dante scholarship is going, or can go, in a global context.

Dante's Vita nuova has taken on a wide variety of different forms since its first publication in 1294. How could one work have generated such different physical forms? Through examining the work's transformations in manuscripts, printed books, translations, and adaptations, Eisner reconceives of the relationship between the work and its reception. Dante's New Life of the Book investigates how these different material manifestations participate in the work, drawing attention to its distinctive elements. Dante framed his book as an attempt to understand his own experiences through the experimental form of the book, and later scribes, editors, and translators use different material forms to embody their interpretations of Dante's collection of thirty-one poems surrounded by prose narrative and commentary. Traveling from Boccaccio's Florence to contemporary Hollywood with stops in Emerson's Cambridge, Rossetti's London, Nerval's Paris, Mandelstam's Russia, De Campos's Brazil, and Pamuk's Istanbul, this study builds on extensive archival research to show how Dante's strange poetic forms, including incomplete canzoni and sonnets with two beginnings, continue to challenge readers. Each chapter focuses on how one of these distinctive features has been treated over time, offering new perspectives on topics such as Dante's love of Beatrice, his relationship with Guido Cavalcanti, and his attraction to another woman. Numerous illustrations show the entanglement of the work's poetic form and its material survival. Eisner provides a fresh reading of Dante's innovations, demonstrating the value of this philological analysis of the work's survival in the world.

Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) was the author of the famous Divine Comedy. Less well known today, however, are Dante's lyric poems and treatises. His lyric production comprised more than 120 poems in diverse forms (canzoni and sestine, sonnets, and ballads, written between around 1283 and 1315). He gathered 31 of his poems in his Vita Nuova (The New Life, early 1290s) and then commented on three of his canzoni in the unfinished Convivio (The Banquet, ca. 1304-1305). These works represent the first, fundamental stage of his literary career. Not only these 'minor' works made Dante well-known as a vernacular poet before he began writing the Commedia, but for two centuries they were also among the most read works in Italian literature. The rich holdings of Oxford libraries allow us to reconstruct the main channels through which Dante's lyric production has circulated from the fourteenth century to the contemporary era. The wide variety of books in the collections belonged to a diverse set of readers throughout the whole of Europe. In Oxford we can find preserved not only unique objects, but also the legacies of scholars such as Edward Moore and Paget Toynbee who studied Dante and gathered precious manuscripts and early printed editions. The digital exhibition Dante's Lyric Poetry in Oxford (https: //www.cabinet.ox.ac.uk/dantes-lyric-poetry-oxford), prepared by Laura Banella within the MSCA project LyrA - Lyric Authority: Editing and Rewriting Dante's Lyric Poetry (14th-16th c.), shows the 'other Dante' - the vernacular Dante outside of the Commedia - as portrayed by manuscripts, and early modern and contemporary editions preserved in Oxford. It presents to a broad public all the manuscripts (from the 14th to the 16th century) and the early printed editions (1491-1727) preserved at the Bodleian Library and at the Taylor Institution Library which contain Dante's lyric poems. A third section, dedicated to the editions of Dante's lyric poetry spanning the period from the 1820s to the 1930s, is but a selection of works from the Taylor Institution Library's vast collection of modern Dantean editions. What is more, the exhibition displays books owned by Oxonian scholars, along with materials testifying to their work as curators of Dante's oeuvre. This catalogue accompanying the exhibition collects the entries describing each manuscript and each printed edition, along with a presentation of the selection of modern editions. Each section of the catalogue is introduced by a short educational essay.

Dante engaged with an extraordinary range of traditions, disciplines and media, and a variety of speech-communities, cultures, genres and media have received his work: from Spain, France and Germany to North America and the Indian sub-continent; and from medieval multilingualism and early modern humanism to contemporary politics, translations and databases. Those multiple contexts and this prolific afterlife form the subject of the book's 27 essays, which have been commissioned from an international group of scholars to mark the 2021Dante centenary. Contributors include members of several historic Dante Societies: The Dante Society of America, (founded 1881); the Deutsche Dante-Gesellschaft (founded 1865); and the Oxford Dante Society (founded 1876); and their essays present a variety of interdisciplinary and cross-cultural approaches to a major transnational poet. Nick Havely is Emeritus Professor of English and Related Literature at the University of York and is an Honorary Member of the Dante Society of America. Jonathan Katz is a Fellow of St Anne's College and Public Orator at the University of Oxford. Richard Cooper is Professor of French at the University of Oxford; Emeritus Fellow of Brasenose College; and Master of St Benet's Hall.
