Jun 02 - Dante Lecture And Art Exhibition This Evening
Charles Durante, a retired English teacher, and art teacher Kristel Turner, have teamed up to present a Dante for our times. The talk, which takes place this evening, will introduce Dante's Divine Comedy, exploring the structure, main incidents, characters, and poetry of this masterpiece of world literature. It will highlight the most moving encounters in the three sections of Dante's poem: the Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso. The exhibition will showcase Kristel's compositions, based on her interpretation of the Comedy, but providing Dante's medieval cast with a Gibraltarian setting.
Both the talk and the exhibition will take place today at 7:00pm in the Charles Hunt Room, John Mackintosh Hall. There will be a power point presentation. Knowledge of Italian is not essential. Entrance is free.
