        In his text, Stefano Aimar briefly mentions Dante and his "Divine Comedy". Not everyone will be familiar with this. A short film (in German) by and with Tilman Spengler as part of the ARD series "Classics of World Literature" presents the life and, as an outstanding work, the "Divina Commedia" of DANTE ALIGHIERI (1265 to 1321). The Florentine native died and was buried in Ravenna. Let us hope that he has actually arrived in heaven - like his literary alter ego - and that he has found his dearly beloved Beatrice there. Anyone who would like to find out more in the ARD media library (the German-language film only lasts a quarter of an hour) just needs to follow the link:
