| Research Abstract |
The serious attempt to appropriate Dante's Divine Comedy allowed the second-generation Romantics the ideological and aesthetic possibilities to generate their modern and cosmopolitan epic, transcending the limits of vision as prescribed by conventional literary criteria. Through the Romantic creation and endorsement of a modern Dante, the poets gained a fresh ascendancy in a new formation of "European" literature. The modern "European" literature which the Romantics inaugurated embraced the Dantean correlation between the particular and the universal in clearly delineated but wide trajectories within which to circulate diverse ideas embedded in cosmopolitanism.
