'UNO LUME APPARENTE DI FUORI SECONDO STA DENTRO': THE EXPRESSIVE BODY IN DANTE'S COMMEDIA.
This article seeks to relate the representation in Dante's Commedia of bodily, and in particular of facial, expression to the fundamental Aristotelian concept of hylomorphism and to the notion that the body makes manifest the invisible interiority of human psychology.

Where in the Inferno this relationship is subject to distortions and suppression, the articulation of corporeality in Beatrice and in the redeemed souls is one in which, principally through effects of luminosity, bodies become supremely expressive. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
