Italo Calvino's "Invisible Cities"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. That which appears straightforward and obvious often conceals something significantly more meaningful in its message. The truth that lies within an account such as Italo Calvino's "Invisible Cities" addresses the inherently complicated and diverse attitudes as they exist within each individual. "Invisible Cities" is about human nature - the very truth of human nature - which is why it is often challenging to accept. Indeed, Calvino's work represents all that is the human experience, a pertinent reason why it appeals so greatly to a limitless audience. No additional sources cited.

Medieval Cities in Dante's Inferno
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that discusses the role of cities as settings in Dante's Inferno. In the notes that accompany the Hollander and Hollander translation of Dante's Inferno, these translators comment that the medieval city provides the "centering image of political life" for Dante's vision of Hell (Hollander and Hollander 56). As this indicates, Dante pictures Hell in terms that are synonymous with those of an earthly city, such as his native Florence. As this indicates, an examination of Dante's references to cities in the Inferno demonstrates how this setting aided Dante in accomplishing his literary goals. No additional sources cited.
