Dante's History

Dante's History is a serialized podcast unpacking the allegories of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, canto by canto, for modern audiences. Combining rigorous scholarship, immersive audio, and storytelling, it demystifies one of Western literature's most important and notoriously inaccessible masterworks.

The project reintroduces the Comedy as a radical moral vision, one that speaks to power, injustice, and personal redemption in any era. Long before modern science, Dante mapped a moral physics: an architecture of conscience, community, and transformation for a world still searching for meaning.

Grant Proposal

Dante's History project logo

A grant proposal for Season 2 of Dante's History, expanding the podcast's canto-by-canto journey through the Divine Comedy and its relevance to modern moral questions. The proposal frames Dante as a guide for an age shaped by artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, physics, neuroscience, and renewed interest in philosophy, theology, and ancient wisdom.

It makes the case for carrying Dante's Renaissance vision forward: uniting art, ethics, intellectual rigor, and the soul's search for meaning in service of human flourishing.
