(EN) This article takes into account the exegesis of the very first lines of Dante’s Paradiso, as it is proposed in the third part of the Epistola a Cangrande, showing that the identification there suggested between the glory of God and His light is untenable on various grounds. On the contrary, maintaining the distinction between the two concepts allows one to keep safe the coherence of the «sacred poem», both in itself and in its relationship with the Convivio and with other medieval philosophical sources.
(IT) Questo articolo prende in considerazione l’esegesi dei primi versi del Paradiso contenuta nella terza parte dell’Epistola a Cangrande, mostrando come l’identificazione lì proposta tra luce e gloria di Dio sia per molti versi insostenibile. Distinguere i due concetti consente, al contrario, di conservare al «poema sacro» un’indispensabile coerenza, tanto in sé quanto in rapporto al Convivio e ad altre fonti filosofiche medievali.
