New literary interpretations linking Dante Alighieri's masterpiece to the representation, in words and images, of the landscape and natural elements will be read and discussed. Among insects, plants and other symbols, the landscape of the poem will be interpreted in new ways, as a living and pulsating literary element capable of creating dialogue and reflecting and spreading the passions, fears and hopes of the protagonists that surround it.
