Module 3: Allegory and
Art
In this module, we read
(or listened to) four literary works.
Excerpt from Beowulf (also available as an audio file in the
lesson)
Excerpt from
Dante's Divine
Comedy.
Act 2, Scene 1 from
Shakespeare's The
Tempest .
Grove Art: Allegory in
Renaissance Italy.
In addition, we
encountered several works of art that utilize allegory to express theme.
Allegory was common during medieval times and survived through the Renaissance.
Allegory shows up even today, for example in The Shack, a religious novel published recently in
America. What is allegory?
Where do you see it in
Dante’s work? Where do you see what might be the beginnings of allegory in the
work of the Beowulf author?
And knowing what you know about Shakespeare from the Discover this module, why
does his work lack many allegories?
