Review # 1 was written on 2011-03-26 00:00:00 Reginaldo Busa Bloom显然是对但丁没有爱了，不过除了他无聊的intro以外选的文章都还值得一看。我觉得最精彩的是Pertile这篇，Mazzotta没太看懂但是mark了他关于Dante's Vision and the Circle of Knowledge的书。只有Cogan讲Paradiso这章虽然有功力但仍然不喜欢，感觉他对行星天的高度顺序还有blessedness的标准讲得太死，显得整个系统对现代人很hostile。

Review # 2 was written on 2019-08-07 00:00:00 Tomiomitsu Kawaguchi In search of another book by José Saramago I came across this slim book instead. Recounting boyhood memories and adventures in Portugal from an early age to young adolescence. There's a lot of sketchy memories some may be somewhat fabricated as José himself admits he was a compulsive liar which is an interesting fact to admit to when writing a memoir. However this doesn't delve too deeply it's more a recollection of simple and seemingly insignificant moments showing that childhood is a collection of bits and pieces of fact and perception. It also goes to show that small insignificant moments can make the most lasting impressions to a young impressionable boy.
