Davide nella Commedia

Bachelor thesis | Italiaanse taal en cultuur (BA)
This thesis argues that Dante tries to authorise the message he wants to transmit in the Comedy through identification with certain characters in his poem. Following and transcending the religious culture of the Middle Ages, Dante uses king David as one of these identification figures in order to authorise his role as poet and prophet.
