I had a class in undergrad that was entirely focused on Dante. We read the whole Divine Comedy as well as a few books designed to help explain the symbolism and the historical context.
We had to write reflection papers correlating things that have happened in our lives with the particular portion of the text we were reading at the time. Sounds lame, but it was one of the most intellectually and philosophically stimulating experiences I've ever had.
Enjoy it.
