To mark the 700th anniversary of Dante's death, the Istituto di Italianistica dell'Università di Basilea and The William & Katherine Devers Program in Dante Studies at the University of Notre Dame have organized a reading of the Inferno that will take place at the University of Basel. This will be divided into five meetings, each of two and a half days, that are scheduled for the Spring and Autumn between March 2019 and March 2021.
6-8 March 2019: cantos I-VII
