W 1977 Dante Alighieri, Franklin Library Edition
Notes
The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri is an epic poem that takes the reader on a journey through the realms of the afterlife: Hell (Inferno), Purgatory (Purgatorio), and Heaven (Paradiso). Written in the early 14th century, the poem follows Dante himself as the protagonist, guided by the Roman poet Virgil and later by Beatrice, his idealized love. The work explores themes of sin, redemption, divine justice, and the human soul's journey toward God. The Divine Comedy is celebrated for its vivid imagery, profound symbolism, and intricate structure, making it one of the greatest works of world literature.
