Dorothy and Dante

Once you've successfully written murder mysteries, lay theology, radio dramas, and stage dramas, what else is left? Why not try your hand at re-interpreting a treasured western classic? This is what Sayers did toward the end of her life: she fell in love with Dante's Divine Comedy, and her obsession with it led to copious research and, ultimately, a new translation. In this episode, we talk about why she was so darn enthusiastic about this old poet.  "Dorothy and Dante" concludes Season 1 of the Dorothy L. Sayers Podcast, but stay tuned for Season 2, beginning in January of 2021. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lindsey-scholl/message
