Bøker av John A. Scott

Dante and Shakespeare divide the modern world between them; there is no third. This study attempts to explain and justify T.S. Eliot's claim. John Scott offers a critical overview of Dante's writings: the ""Vita Nova"", the ""Convivio"", the ""De Vulgari Eloquentia"", his ""Rime"", and ""Monarchia"",

'He told me this much... that he'd met a woman in Paris and that they'd been writing to each other. That their letters had become increasingly erotic.'A man who can no longer talk to his wife. His brief encounter with another woman. The beginnings of a possible affair in letters. Letters which might have been turned into a novel or a detailed confession. These are the facts.But the facts begin to shift. Fiction and reality become indistinguishable in one persons' search for truth and another's realisation of desire. What I Have written is a novel of sexual obsession a literary puzzle in which what is written is far from what it seems.
