Dante Philomythes and Philosopher Paperback: Man in the Cosmos (Cambridge Paperback Library) - Softcover

'Dr Boyde has performed a valuable service in taking the reader through a tangled forest of Christian Aristotelianism, showing exactly where Dante followed or diverged from his various authorities. He has helped us to understand with greater precision just what Dante thought and why.' The Times Literary Supplement

'The ultimate purpose of Boyde's study ... is to show that accurate science, daring vision and exquisite language are forged into an indissoluble poetic unity ... The reader of this book will find time and again how difficult passages can be elucidated to reveal both this inner unity of science and poetry and their participation in a single conception of the cosmos, and he will be delighted by the illumination given by broad and exact scholarship ...' The Times Higher Education Supplement
