(William Blake, Whirlwind of the Lustful, Canto V, Inferno)
为何同读一本书会激发爱与罪?但丁笔下的保罗与弗朗切斯卡共读的是哪本书?爱情与淫欲的分界在哪里?地狱之淫欲圈中精妙的对位刑(contrapasso)逻辑如何运作?
本期节目中,我们将从近期正在国内巡演的意大利音乐剧《神曲》(La Divina Comedia)出发,基于意大利语原文,细读这对悲剧情侣的命运。我们还将讨论但丁对自己作为“温柔新体”(dolce stil novo)爱情诗人的早期生涯的反思,但丁如何借弗朗切丝卡之手谈论“爱”(amor),以及中世纪文学/现实中典雅爱情(courtly love)体系的内部矛盾和外在危机。
十月中旬,吟游诗人的诗酒之秋:《此处有龙》一周年听友见面会将在上海举办。欢迎大家在本期节目下踊跃留言,我们将优先邀请优质/多次留言的听友,与我们共赴一场诗歌、音乐、对谈与美酒的秋日盛会。

- Contrappasso is the coreprinciple by which souls are punished in Dante’s Inferno. It meansthat each sinner suffers a punishment that either mirrorsor inverts the sin they committed in life. The word itselfcomes from Latin: contra (“against”) and patior(“to suffer”) so to suffer in return (but not always in a plain and obvious symmetrical way).
(Bertran de Born, demonstrating the principle of contrapasso, by Gustave Dore)
(Francesca & Paolo, by DanteGabreil Rossetti)
- Benedetto (masculine) or Benedetta (feminine)
In Italian, Benedetto (masculine) or Benedetta (feminine) means "blessed" and is both a given name and a common surname, derived from the Latin name Benedictus. As a word, it can also mean "blessed," "holy," or even "dear" or "damn" depending on the context; : This is the most direct antonym, meaning "cursed," "damned," or "accursed." For example, "" (blessed land) vs. "" (cursed land).
