DESCRIPTION:This interdisciplinary lecture will explore how Dante’s Comm
 edia was translated into architecture for a variety of purposes ranging fr
 om the theological to the political\, while also employing the phenomenolo
 gy of space.  It will focus on two case studies: the chapel by Philibert 
 Delorme at the Château d’Anet (c. 1550) and the Danteum project for Rom
 e (1938) by Giuseppe Terragni and Pietro Lingeri.  Although widely separa
 ted in time and space\, both designs have much in common\; and their exper
 iential architecture\, in turn\, helps to focus attention on the theologic
 al importance of “lived space” in Dante’s literary project.\n
