El esoterismo de Dante

In the vein of his book Christian Esotericism, René Guénon reviews in this work various errors and inaccuracies of those authors who had tried to see a hidden or esoteric meaning in Dante Alighieri's work, and gives a completely new explanation of multiple points that commentators of the great Florentine genius they could never satisfactorily elucidate. Without claiming to be complete on a subject that could be said to be inexhaustible, René Guénon sheds an unexpected light on the properly esoteric and initiatory aspect of the Divine Comedy. Dante was undoubtedly something far beyond the literary genius that so much admiration arouses, and one has the right to think that many things, not to say treasures, remain to be discovered in what René Guénon has called, not without reason, "the spiritual testament from middle Ages".
