La <em>tología</em> di Sancho e il dialogo con Dante

Abstract

The madness of Don Quixote is a cover-up of the theologism of the novel, which dialogues with Dante and with the theologism of the Commedia. The second part of Quixote presupposes, in Cervantes, a more lucid and less frightened conscience of the anticlerical meaning of his work (verifiable both in Quixote and Persiles), and a more confident adherence to Dante’s ideological-poetic model.
