This book was released on 1987 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dante and the Empire focuses on Dante's concept of a world-state and explores the sources for his novel interpretation of human civilization and destiny. It offers a new look at controversial passages in the Monarchia and a fresh comparison of these with important verses in the Divine Comedy which reflect Dante's political experience. Consistency between the poem and the treatise on monarchy is emphasized while traditional readings of the influences of Aristotle, Augustan Rome, Averroes, and Aquinas are reevaluated. Mancusi-Ungaro also addresses philological problems, namely three cases of textual ambiguity in the Monarchia which contribute to Dante's originality and an understanding of his use of philosophical allegory.

Book excerpt: The reader should not be mistaken. This is not a book of stories like The Divine Comedy. It is an essay (as we would call it today) by Dante Alighieri about the power struggle in his time. De Monarchia is a political work; in fact, it had great political influence. Motivated to write it around 1313, during the unsuccessful siege that Henry VII of Luxembourg subjected the city of Florence to, Dante seeks to contribute to eradicating the prevailing anarchy in Italy and specifically in the city of Florence with this work. He dreams of a social order that establishes peace and, in a clearly Ghibelline tone, uses a logical rhetoric based on the Scholastics, the Greek and Roman classics, the historians Livy and Orosius, Marcus Tullius Cicero and Aristotle, and the Bible, elaborating a set of ideas that go against the papal bull Unam Sanctam of 1302, by Pope Boniface VIII. Therefore, De Monarchia is a treatise on the conflict between temporal and spiritual power. The theme was already controversial at the time: the relationship between the authority represented by the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and the authority of the Pope. Dante's point of view is known, since during his political activity he fought to defend the autonomy of the government of the city of Florence from the interference of Boniface VIII. Chronologically, De Monarchia should be placed after the treatise De vulgari eloquentia and before Paradiso, that is, in a period between the second and third parts of The Divine Comedy. The original was written in Latin and is composed of three books, but the most significant is the third, in which Dante more explicitly confronts the theme of the relations between the Pope and the Emperor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dante’s Latin treatise Monarchia inscribes itself within the long medieval conflict between Pope and Emperor and the debate that opposed the theorists of theocracy to the supporters of the empire. The Monarchia, traditionally assumed to be a subversive work as its tormented reception testifies – it remained listed in the Index of Prohibited Books from 1559 to the end of the 19th century – results from the strong connection Dante emphasized between politics and ethics. The bene esse of human beings is the crucial issue that the treatise discusses since its very beginning. More than focusing on power and sovereignty, the Monarchia aims to demonstrate that the government of a single universal ruler guarantees the achievement of the natural goal of human life. The central role assigned to the Emperor discloses, in fact, the importance the poet gives to earthly happiness and to the temporal dimension of humanitas. The essays in this volume are the result of the first International Symposium of the Global Dante Project of New York, a scholarly initiative committed to the systematic study of the whole of Dante’s opus. Held in 2015 and devoted to the Monarchia, this inaugural event saw the participation of scholars from Europe and the USA who investigated Dante’s political treatise addressing diverse issues and from multiple and innovative methodological perspectives. The fertile discussion generated on that occasion and the insights it produced animate this book.

I. --" Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against His anointed, saying: ' Let us break their bonds asunder, and cast away their cords from us.'" * As we commonly wonder at a new effect, when we have never been face to face with its cause; so, as soon as we understand the cause, we look down with a kind of scorn on those who remain in wonder. I, myself, was once filled with wonder that the Roman people had become paramount throughout all the earth, without any to withstand them; for when I looked at the thing superficially I thought that this supremacy had been obtained, not by. any right, but only by arms and violence. But after that I had carefully and thoroughly examined the matter, when I had *Ps. ii. 1-3.--(W.) recognised by the most effectual signs that it was divine providence that had wrought this, my wonder ceased, and a certain scornful contempt has taken its place, when I perceive the nations raging against the pre-eminence of the Roman people; when I see the people imagining a vain thing, as I of old imagined; when, above all, I grieve that kings and princes agree in this one matter only, in opposing their Lord, and His one only Roman Emperor. Wherefore in derision, yet not without a touch of sorrow, I can cry on behalf of the glorious people and for Caesar, together with him who cried on behalf of the Prince of heaven: " Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against His anointed." But the love which nature implants in us allows not scorn to last for long; but, like the summer sun that...
