941.2243 The Representation of Love and Sex in Dante Aligheri's Inferno.
This paper will examine how Dante depicts love and sex in his Inferno. Through an examination of two scenes in particular - dealing with adulterous heterosexual love and homosexual love respectively - it will be seen that Dante was certainly not a "holier-than-thou" moralist. Indeed, his treatment of love and sex reflects the perspective of a generous and sophisticated sensibility. However, it will be argued that Dante depicts such examples of love and sex as suffering punishment in Hell to illustrate the tension that exists between human and divine judgement. As will be seen, Dante never allows his own sympathy with the very human "sins" of these individuals to cloud his perception of an inexorable divine justice at work in the world. 4 pgs. 9 f/c. 2b.

943.4151 The Parson's Tale and The Canterbury Tales.
This paper examines the way in which The Parson's Tale changes the way we read The Canterbury Tales. In comparison to The Wife of Bath, The Pardoner's Tale, and The Monk's Tale this becomes quite obvious in the context of how the Church is portrayed. The Parson's Tale reminds us that Chaucer is not against the Church, as might be implied in his many tales, but only against the human corruption within it. 11 pgs. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

944.4177 Deviant Physics in Mythological Spaces and Other Important Points in Canto IV of Dante's "Purgatorio".
This paper concerns the fourth chapter, or canto, of the second book in the Divina Commedia of Dante, the Purgatorio. It concerns the ascent of the main characters to the realm of the indolent, where reside the repentant souls of those who were too lazy to convert before their last days. God is making them wait before they are admitted to paradise, just like they made him wait for their conversion. The paper concerns the way in which Dante uses abnormal physical laws to make the mythological space of the Commedia just weird enough to be believed. Current findings in the anthropology of religion are cited to support the need for odd, un-earthly aspects of supernatural systems like those involved in the afterlife. 12 pgs.
