Patricia H. Labalme Friends of the Library Lecture
Teodolinda Barolini – Dante’s Sympathy for the Other or the Non Stereotyping Imagination: Sexual and Racial Others in the “Commedia”
The Patricia H. Labalme Friends of the Library Lecture is named in honor of Patricia H. Labalme (1924–2002), a noted scholar of Renaissance history and a specialist on Venice, who served on the Academy’s Board of Trustees from 1979 to 1999. The Friends of the Library supports the AAR Library through annual dues and special initiatives, also raising awareness of the library’s resources through regular programs.
