Founded by Dr. Robert Hollander, The Princeton Dante Project (2.0) (PDP) is a well-funded project that has received internal funding from Princeton University and external support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation, the Edward T. Cone Foundation, and The Clover Foundation. The PDP has also benefited from two generous gifts from Princeton alumni George Castell and Paul Gridley.
