Summary

A responsible model of cultural entrepreneurship, centered on Dante's legacy, can diversify tourism in Florence while preserving authenticity and promoting resident participation. This 'Dante Ecosystem' integrates monuments, museums, bookshops, educational institutions, performing arts, crafts, and digital services through thematic routes, participatory experiences, evidence-based digital interpretation, and collaborative governance. The approach emphasizes universal accessibility and visitor-flow management to ensure sustainable economic development. The study combines literary tourism scholarship, historical analysis, and official documentation to propose this innovative framework.
