WALKING WITH DANTE Is Going On A Short Hiatus Through January

Just a short episode to say that I'm putting the podcast on hold until the end of January because I need a break--maybe, in fact, we all need a break.I can't wait to keep climbing but I need to catch my breath for a moment before we go on.If you'd like to donate to help me cover the costs of streaming, hosting, and licensing materials for this podcast, you can do so by visiting this PayPal link right here.

Ever wanted to read Dante's Divine Comedy? Come along with us! We're not lost in the scholarly weeds. (Mostly.) We're strolling through the greatest work (to date) of Western literature. Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as I take on this masterpiece passage by passage. I'll give you my rough English translation, show you some of the interpretive knots in the lines, let you in on the 700 years of commentary, and connect Dante's work to our modern world. The pilgrim comes awake in a dark wood, then walks across the known universe. New episodes every Sunday and Wednesday.
