Descrizione

According to the tradition, Dante introduces Nimrod as giant and builder of the Tower of Babel; actually, this is not a real biblical tradition, since it’s the result of a misunderstanding of the Genesis text, caused by the Vetus Latina based upon the Greek translation, to which is added the contribution of an external source like the work by Flavius Josephus. All this is well known since long ago. The present contribution’s aim is to provide evidence of something more: based upon lexical confirmations, it aims at recognizing in Dante the intention to compare Nimrod’s pride action to the consequences of Lucifer’s behavior, that leads to the origin of the Eden mount.
