Notă biografică

William Franke is a philosopher of the humanities, a Dante scholar, and a professor of comparative literature at Vanderbilt University. He has also been professor of philosophy at the University of Macao (2013–16), Fulbright Distinguished Chair in Intercultural Theology at the University of Salzburg (2005–06), and Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung research fellow at Potsdam University (1994–95). In 2021, he became Honorary Professor (Professor Honoris Causa) of the Agora Hermeneutica. Franke’s apophatic philosophy is conceived and expounded in On What Cannot Be Said (2007) and A Philosophy of the Unsayable (2014). It is extended into a comparative philosophy of culture in Apophatic Paths from Europe to China (2018) and applied to address current controversies in education and society ranging from identity politics to cognitive science and media studies in On the Universality of What Is Not: The Apophatic Turn in Critical Thinking (2020). As a philosopher of the humanities with a negative theological vision, Franke elaborates a theological poetics in books including Dante’s Interpretive Journey (1996), Poetry and Apocalypse: Theological Disclosures of Poetic Language (2009), Dante and the Sense of Transgression: "The Transgression of the Sign" (2012). He traces the ramifications of Dante’s theological poetics forward in modern poetry (Secular Scriptures: Theological Poetics and the Challenge of Modernity, 2016) and backward toward Dante’s own sources (The Revelation of Imagination: From the Bible and Homer through Virgil and Augustine to Dante, 2015). His book Dante’s Paradiso and the Theological Origins of Modern Thought: Toward a Speculative Philosophy of Self-Reflection (2021) received the Hermes Award: Book of the Year in Phenomenological Hermeneutics from The International Institute for Hermeneutics (IIH). It is cited along with Franke’s two other speculative monographs revolving around Dante published in the same year: The Divine Vision of Dante’s Paradiso: The Metaphysics of Representation (2021) and Dante’s Vita Nuova and the New Testament: Hermeneutics and the Poetics of Revelation (2021).

Recenzii

“The book is certainly on the leading edge when it considers the purpose and relevance of the humanities in our time – a very “cutting-edge” question for humanities scholars.  In terms of Dante studies specifically, the book provides original insights into the Paradiso, perhaps the least studied of the Commedia’s three canticles. The scholarship is first-rate.  Franke, as a major Dante scholar, is steeped in all the research and publications on Dante.  He has an easy familiarity with most of what has been written about Dante, going back even throughout the twentieth century.”
-Glenn A. Steinberg, Professor, The College of New Jersy, USA
“I found this book to be thought-provoking, and at several points mind-changing. an original perspective, and certainly on the "leading edge" of its field. Franke writes with pellucid clarity; even when he is handling complex issues in literary theory and theology, his argument is easy to follow.“ 
-John Fyler, Professor, Tufts University, USA
