Know about the book -

Vertical Readings in Dante's Comedy is written by George Corbett and published by Open Book Publishers. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1783742569 (ISBN 10) and 9781783742561 (ISBN 13).

This collection – to be issued in three volumes – offers an unprecedented repertoire of vertical readings for the whole poem. As the first volume exemplifies, vertical reading not only articulates unexamined connections between the three canticles but also unlocks engaging new ways to enter into core concerns of the poem. The three volumes thereby provide an indispensable resource for scholars, students and enthusiasts of Dante. The volume has its origin in a series of thirty-three public lectures held in Trinity College, the University of Cambridge (2012-2016) which can be accessed at the Cambridge Vertical Readings in Dante’s Comedy website.
