Descrizione

Foscolo admired Dante from the time of his youth, and he devotes a lot of space to him in the Ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis, where he emphasizes above all the Florentine’s exemplary life, rather than his work. For the protagonist of this epistolary novel, Dante, because of his heroic behaviour, is yardstick of moral choices. This ethical interpretation entails the elimination of Dante’s theology and in particular of the eschatological dimension. Jacopo Ortis, on the other hand, directs the cult of the great medieval poet towards a self-destructive horizon: for him to speak with Dante is to converse with death.
