Living as an Act of Courage: Dante's Treatment of Suicide and its Applicability Today

Thesis advisor: Christopher Constas / There is a huge problem today with high suicide rates skyrocketting and the medical community lacking the necessary tools to deal with it. Dante Aligheri's philosophy of condemnation of the act while recognizing limited culpability is a possible solution. Hopefully, this philosophy can be implemented by the medical community in their effort to deter potential suicides. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2023. / Submitted to: Boston College.
