Key Notes
definition
Jiang says the dominant explanation in Dante's time for Jesus's death was the ransom theory: humanity became enslaved to Satan after the Fall, and God offers his son as ransom, with Christ's divinity allowing resurrection and escape from hell.
other
A live student answer proposes that Jesus dies and resurrects in order to prove he is truly divine, and Jiang says some denominations in fact teach the crucifixion-resurrection this way.
evidence
The Dante passage says animal and plant souls are drawn from matter by holy rays and motion, but human life is breathed forth immediately by the chief good and therefore grounds the reasoning for resurrection.

diagnosis
In Jiang's reading, Dido's love for Aeneas costs her pride, reputation, people, and identity, the opposite of Odysseus being resurrected by returning home to Penelope.
diagnosis
The word about the brooch resurrects Penelope's spirit: her mind remains stuck in present danger, but her soul always knew and her heart now knows Odysseus is alive.
model
Odysseus stringing the bow represents the resurrection and realignment of his mind, spirit, soul, identity, and worldview.
