All agree: Dante Alighieri was a great poet. But Denys Turner insists that he was also a great theologian—and that what makes his theology great is his poetry. Moreover, Turner argues, Dante was able to write his masterpiece only after he had personally journeyed through Hell and Purgatory like Dante, the pilgrim character in The Divine Comedy. Is this the case?
Ken Woodward, former Newsweek religion editor and Lumen Christi’s Writer-in-Residence, will press these questions during a luncheon interview with Denys Turner, to help us learn about Dante’s pilgrimage in hope, and appreciate his poetry as an entry point into theological discovery.
