ntalist francesco gabrieli expressed scepticism regarding the claimed similarities and the lack of evidence of a vehicle through which it could have been transmitted to dante 67 the italian philologist maria corti pointed out that during his stay at the court of alfonso x dante s mentor brunetto latini met bonaventura de siena a tuscan who had translated the kitab al miraj from arabic into latin corti speculates that brunetto may have provided a copy of that work to dante 68 rené guénon a sufi convert and scholar of ibn arabi confirms in the esoterism of dante the theory of the islamic influence direct or indirect on dante 69 palacios theory that dante was influenced by ibn arabi was satirised by the turkish academic orhan pamuk in his novel the black book 70 in addition to that it has been claimed that risālat al ghufrān the epistle of forgiveness a satirical work mixing arabic poetry and prose written by abu al ʿalaʾ al maʿarri around 1033 ce had an influence on or even inspired dante s divine comedy 71 72 criticism and textual history edit a detail from one of sandro botticelli s illustrations for inferno canto xviii 1480s silverpoint on parchment completed in pen and ink critical reception of the divine comedy has varied considerably prior to its universal renown today although recognised as a masterpiece in the centuries immediately following its publication 73 the work largely fell into obscurity during the enlightenment with some notable exceptions vittorio alfieri antoine de rivarol who translated the inferno into french and giambattista vico who in the scienza nuova and in the giudizio su dante inaugurated what would later become the romantic reappraisal of dante juxtaposing him to homer 74 the comedy was rediscovered in the english speaking world by william blake who illustrated several passages of the epic and the romantic writers of the 19th century later authors such as t s eliot ezra pound samuel beckett c s lewis and james joyce have drawn on it for inspiration the poet henry wadsworth longfellow was its first american translator 75 and modern poets including seamus heaney 76 robert pinsky john ciardi w s merwin and stanley lombardo have also produced translations of all or parts of the book in russia beyond alexander pushkin s translation of a few tercets 77 osip mandelstam s late poetry has been said to bear the mark of a tormented meditation on the comedy 78 in 1934 mandelstam gave a modern reading of the poem in his labyrinthine conversation on dante 79 erich auerbach said dante was the first writer to depict human beings as the products of a specific time place and circumstance as opposed to mythic archetypes or a collection of vices and virtues concluding that this along with the fully imagined world of the divine comedy suggests that the divine comedy inaugurated literary realism and self portraiture in modern fiction 80 in t s eliot s estimation dante and shakespeare divide the world between them there is no third 81 for jorge luis borges the divine comedy was the best book literature has achieved 82 in the centuries since its publication the comedy has developed one of the most extensive critical traditions of any work of literature unmatched by any other secular work of western literature line by line commentaries have been written in languages across europe the americas and asia 83 significantly the comedy was among the first pieces of vernacular literature to receive serious critical attention prior to 1300 such detailed criticism was reserved for religious texts and works of classical literature 84 the comedy is considered one originator of the encyclopedic novel across multiple formulations of the concept 85 edward mendelson s coinage of the term contrasted dante s initial ostracism with his later importance to italian national identity comparing this to the culture building function of later encyclopedic authors like shakespeare cervantes or melville 86
