March: Change & Responsibility


Dante Day, known in Italy as Dantedì, is celebrated every year on March 25th. This date is very important in history and culture because scientists believe it is the day Dante Alighieri began his famous journey in the Divine Comedy. Dante is often called the "Father of the Italian Language" because he chose to write his epic poem in the local dialect instead of Latin, making literature accessible to everyone. Today, people all over the world celebrate this day by reading his verses, visiting museums, and attending cultural events. It is a moment to remember how one writer’s imagination helped shape the identity of a whole nation.
