01-Weird Lit Tales: Dante and the dreams

  • Summary

  • Did you know it is believed that The Divine Comedy, written by Dante Alighieri, was inspired by a dream? At least, that's what literary critic Boismont thought. Additionally, a legend was circulating that after Dante's death in September 1321, the manuscript of The Divine Comedy was incomplete. The last thirteen cantos, corresponding to Paradise, were nowhere to be found. However, a few months later, his youngest son, Jacopo Alighieri, had a dream in which his father's radiant spirit pointed to a hiding spot in his room where the missing manuscripts were. At least, that's what Boccaccio recounts in his work The Life of Dante. Was this an invention of Boccaccio, or do we truly owe the completeness of The Divine Comedy to a dream? Estoy haciendo un pequeño experimento con los shorts (para YT, Rumble, Instagram y TikTok). Los he traducido al inglés y obviamente esa no es mi voz, sino de "Brian", una voz artificial, pero suena muy natural, la verdad, generada en ElevenLabs. Antes de que la IA nos destruya, nos aprovecharemos de ella como una herramienta más. La versión en castellano será siempre mi voz, no me la voy a clonar. ¿Qué sería Cuentos oscuros sin mis tropezones lingüísticos, mis torpezas donde "se me lengua la traba" constantemente? Perdería la gracia, seguro. If you want to see on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QGW0svRIQhs
