Announcements!

At the risk of turning the blog into a Bay Area bulletin board, let me remind all in the area that the North Beach Lectura Dantis begins the cycle all over again with Inferno, starting next week (this week we are finishing with St. Bonaventure's Journey of the Mind Into God). We meet every Wednesday in the basement of the National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi on Vallejo, between Columbus and Grant at 7:30pm. For next week, please have the first three canti read, and bring your copy of the Durling translation (we really do prefer that everyone work out of the same translation, as we spent way too much time in the past comparing translations). The Robert Durling translation is excellent. It is published by Oxford Press and has notes by Robert Durling and Ronald Martinez.
