THE DANTE CLUB - PEARL, MATTHEW 0.40KG IN SOUTH AFRICA
Paperback. English. Random House. 2004. 372pp. In fair/good condition, some scribbling in prelims. Boston, 1865. The literary geniuses of the Dante Club—poets and Harvard professors Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, and James Russell Lowell, along with publisher J. T. Fields—are finishing America’s first translation of The Divine Comedy. The powerful Boston Brahmins at Harvard College are fighting to keep Dante in obscurity, believing the infiltration of foreign superstitions to be as corrupting as the immigrants arriving at Boston Harbor.
