CO.AS.IT. and Dante Alighieri Society invite you to join an evening with Richard Alston to present his book, 'The Glory of Dante'.
Dante Alighieri, an Italian poet, writer, and philosopher, stands out for his enduring and celebrated legacy. Unlike typical literature grounded in the present, Dante’s 'Divine Comedy' offers a transcendental experience, exploring profound spiritual and existential questions.
