Product Information

Dantes epic poem Inferno is brought to the reader complete in this superbly translated hardcover edition. As the opening part of Dantes epic of poetry, The Divine Comedy, The Inferno introduces Dante as a character. We see the poet lost in a dark wood, and promptly confronted by three mighty beasts a leopard, a lion, and a shewolf. Symbolic of sinful behaviour and desires, the trio of creatures pursue Dante into darkness, wherein Virgil a deceased Roman poet representing human cognition and reason appears. Initially unsure of Virgils intentions, Dante is persuaded when the poet mentions that Beatrice Portinari, a young woman Dante knew and a symbol of love, sent him to find Dante with instructions from the Virgin Mary. It is thus that their journey to the underworld begins, with Virgil to act as Dantes guide through the malevolent environs. | Dante Inferno: First Book of the Divine Comedy (Hardcover) Hardcover
