John Kinder, Emeritus Professor of Italian Studies at the University of Western Australia, presents this Divine Comedy lecture in Christchurch New Zealand, Thursday 25 June 2026.

John concludes his presentation with these verses:

His words so restrained me that I left
the question; and I drew back
to ask the spirit humbly who he was.
