Leeds Centre for Dante Studies

Description

The Leeds Centre for Dante Studies promotes the study of Dante from a variety of disciplinary and methodological perspectives, both within the University of Leeds and beyond. It does so through its dynamic programme of research activity and collaboration; supporting and enriching undergraduate and postgraduate study; and bringing Dante to a wider public through its open lectures and podcasts.

The Centre's primary research focus is the major AHRC-funded project, Dante and Late Medieval Florence: Theology in Poetry, Practice and Society, which brings together a team of seven researchers at Leeds and Warwick to examine the connections between religious thought and practice in Florence in the period 1280-1300, and Dante's poetry.
