Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Symposium: Dante Six Hundred Years After: Three Addresses Read Before the Chicago Literary Club Monday Evening, January 3 1921 As the Chicago Literary Club will hold no meetings in September next, in which month falls the anniversary we now celebrate, the Committee on Arrangements and Exercises set apart the first meeting of the year 1921 for our Dante Memorial. While the Club rarely goes outside of its membership for contributions to its programs, it seemed wise to do so on that occasion. The leader of the meeting, Mr. Merritt Starr, accordingly invited three eminent Dante scholars of the Middle West to take part: Dr. Theodore W. Koch, of Northwestern University; Professor Kenneth McKenzie, of the University of Illinois; and Professor Ernest H.Wilkins, of the University of Chicago. Dr. Koch´s address, illustrated by lantern slides, was delivered ex tempore and therefore cannot be included herein. A topical outline, however, will be found on page 51. The Introduction and the other two addresses form the body of this publication. The Chicago Literary Club and all four participants in this Symposium are members of the Dante Society of Cambridge, Massachusetts, founded by Charles Eliot Norton. This Society has to its credit the complete Concordances of Dante´s works, and thirty-eight annual reports with accompanying monographs. Dr. Koch, besides being the author of the important compilation mentioned near the end of the Introduction, was, before assuming the responsibilities of his present position of librarian of Northwestern University, librarian of the Fiske Dante Collection of Cornell University, a collection largely augmented during his administration.
