Monaco – “The virtual world of Dante’s paradise” is a special event with Professor Florian Mehltretter scheduled for Wednesday, October 7 at the Italian Cultural Institute of Munich. “Dante’s paradise is the apotheosis of a virtual, immaterial, a pure software reality. It left behind, in Purgatory, the weight of terrestrial or infernal hardware,” once wrote Umberto Eco (La Repubblica, September 6, 2000). And now the seminar with Professor Florian Mehltretter will debate, discuss and test this hypothesis by reading three canti of Dante’s Paradise: I, IV, XXXIII. (9Colonne)
