Oscar Wilde acerca de Dante Alighieri









"I have not read Dante for ages: it is a great pity. He is the supreme modern poet: Greek tragedy deals with the elemental difficulties of life—the terrible things external to us—but in Dante are all the complexities of the modern soul."

Oscar Wilde christens Dante Alighieri “the supreme modern poet” in a letter to art critic, editor, and close friend, More Adey, dated March, 1899.
