Each session brings together undergraduates, scholars, and community members for a guided reading and discussion led by scholars from many different disciplines and research areas. Whether you’re discovering Dante’s epic poem for the first time or returning to it with fresh questions, this is a chance to engage deeply with a work that continues to inspire, provoke, and challenge across time.Robert Henke, professor of drama and comparative literature, will introduce Canto VIII of Dante’s Inferno, followed by readings of the canto in both Italian and English and a Q&A session.
