‘With its wide and interdisciplinary variety of topics, Dantean Dialogues offers reflections on different aspects of Dante’s oeuvres upon the heels of Iannucci’s studies, a fitting "legacy" of his critical voice and contributions to the study of Dante.’

Vittorio Montemaggi, Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, University of Notre Dame:

“Dantean Dialogues is an original, substantial, and fitting tribute to one of the leading figures in contemporary Dante scholarship. The wide-ranging selection of essays in this volume represents a number of important new directions in the study of Dante’s works.”
