Daily readings at tomb honor Dante 700 years after his death Poll Yes RAVENNA, Italy (AP) – As she has each evening for the last eight months, Giuliana Turati opened her well-worn copy of Dante’s “Divine Comedy” as the last of 13 peels of a church bell reverberated around the tomb of the great Italian poet. Italy is honoring Dante Alighieri – who died in exile from Florence on Sept. 13, 1321 – in myriad ways on the 700th anniversary of his death. Those include new musical scores and gala concerts, exhibits and dramatic readings against stunning backgrounds in every corner of the country.
