Uniform Title:
Comentum super Dantem
Content:
In 1400s Italy, Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy soon became a classic with a cult following, but the average person still struggled to understand the meanings behind this poetic work of art. After half a century of interpretive experiments came the intervention of a great classical expert, Giovanni Boccaccio, the first to talk about Dante to an audience, and shortly after the analogous initiative of a classical professional, Benvenuto Rambaldi (professor from Imola), who put a cycle of lessons on the Comedy among his activities. The institution of the classics became official: it was the school that legitimized its role, the teaching commitment made it knowledge. He read and explained the text to students (in other words, gave a lecture). He first taught this in a classroom in the Porta Nuova district in Bologna; transcripts from those lectures taken from notes of a student form what can be defined as the benevolent Lectura Dantis Bononiensis
