Peccato e libero arbitrio: Dante nel Paradiso Terrestre

Abstract

In this article the Author provides a new interpretation of sin and free will in Dante's Comedy. She analyses first of all the "veglio" of Crethe, the speech of Marco Lombardo and the vision of the "femina balba", showing the new motives in the encounter of Dante with a new situation. In the Paradise on Earth every tension is absent: peace replaces the "war" of proceeding and piety.
