Dante Camp - call for proposals (UConn, Yale, Wesleyan)

June 15, 2021

This year marks the 700th anniversary of Dante's second (and definite) journey to the afterlife...

Italian Studies at Yale, in partnership with the Italian Programs at Wesleyan University and the University of Connecticut, and with the support of the Dante Society of America, will host an online Dante Camp next fall. This initiative is meant to be inclusive, playful, and open to proposals from non-specialists as well as Dantisti and specialists in medieval literature, history, and theology.

We encourage proposals from you and your colleagues in Connecticut, Rhode Island or neighboring areas.  We're eager to hear from alumni, teachers, and students, including exceptional undergrads.

A full description of the project is enclosed.  The deadline for a very brief proposal is June 15.  Please feel free to spread the word and do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
