Around thirty teachers and students took part in the “Divine Comedy” workshop held at UA&P. Dr. Paul Dumol was the main speaker who gave us key concepts in understanding and conveying the message of the poem. The Peckson Duo were the other two speakers who shared their experiences teaching Dante’s poem to undergraduates. Mr. and Mrs. Escasa, along with Ina (their daughter and UA&P student), and Mrs. Sator came from the Paref schools and likewise shared their insights on the Commedia. Caruso Italian restaurant supplied the pizza!
