Synopsis:
John Took provides an entirely original view of one of the most important poets and thinkers in all of Western literature, Dante Alighieri.
About the Author: John Took is Professor Emeritus of Dante Studies at University College London. Prominent among his books and articles on Dante - many of them turning on the poet's significance as a leading representative of what Paul Tillich calls the 'existentialist point of view' in philosophy and theology - is his recently published intellectual biography of Dante entitled simply Dante (Princeton University Press, 2020).
