ONLINE: Dante After Dante
to
press release: The Department of French and Italian at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is very happy to share with you the program of our International Symposium “Dante after Dante", a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and multimedia conference to be held online on April 29-30, 2022.
Beyond paper sessions on Dante in/and filmmaking, economy, visual arts, the conference will focus on Dante’s reception in the African-American community in the US, in world film and literature, classical and contemporary music. This event will pair in a unique way these more traditional modes of academic inquiry with dance performances in collaboration with Li Chiao-Ping and her Dance Troupe (with a choreography inspired by Dante’s Inferno), and with a series of film screenings at the UW Cinematheque. Find the schedule at the event webpage: https://frit.wisc.edu/event/
