The Transhumanizing of Dante

The experience of seeking suffering telepathy are all aspects of this transhumanizing that Dante reveals to us having had it revealed to him in his journey through the inferno. Brunetto Latini who Dante meets in the inferno is so fascinating because he taught Dante its thought and did reveal truths to Dante particularly about poetry and about glory but Brunetto has got confused about these things as he focused on sustaining himself through the celebration of love and beauty and glory He didn't transhumanize in fact because he wanted to know these things but in order to protect him from what he saw as the vicissitudes of time and how he would be forgotten how his fame needed to be propped up
