SUMMARY:Afterlives: Dante in Dialogue with East Asian Buddhism | Day 2
DESCRIPTION:In The Metaphysics of Dante’s Comedy\, one of the most significant contributions on Dante’s thought in modern scholarship\, Christian Moevs presents an interpretation of the Florentine poet’s worldview that is consistent with Eastern spirituality. Moevs’s allusions to non-dualistic principles of Indian and Asian religion and thought in the context of an in-depth examination of Dante’s metaphysics offer the opportunity to advance a productive inquiry that may bridge conventional divides between medieval literature in Europe and cultural productions in medieval East Asia\, especially on questions of eschatology and justice. The convergence between these two distant traditions is prompting us – in coincidence with the seventh centennial of Dante’s death in 2021 – to organize a conference that seeks to explore differences and similarities between these visions of the afterlife\, while avoiding the traps of facile parallels. \nPANEL 2 \n9:00 am\nPaola Nasti (Northwestern University)\n“The Tongue of Love: Dante and His Biblical Charisma” \n9:40 am\nFabio Rambelli (UC Santa Barbara)\n“Hell and Damnation in Japanese Buddhism” \n10:20cam\nWilliam Franke (Vanderbilt University)\n“Dante and East Asian Buddhism: The Apophatic Connection” \n11:00 am\nRemarks by Brenda Schildgen (UC Davis)\, followed by discussion \n<< Schedule for Day 1 \nOrganized by Torquil Duthie (UCLA ALC) and Andrea Moudarres (UCLA ELTS). \nRegister for the conference on Zoom.
