Following in Dante’s Footsteps
Dante – author of the Divine Comedy, considered the father of the Italian language. The man and the myth are most often associated with his birthplace of Florence and final resting place of Ravenna. Tuscan scholar Raffaella Cavalieri uses Dante’s life as a travel guide of sorts exploring these two places and those in between where Dante wandered in exile.
A Day with Giorgione at Villa Selva

Our Italy-based writer makes a pilgrimage to Giorgione’s restaurant and agriturismo in Umbria and tells us why you should too.
