Forlagsbeskrivelse af The Divine Comedy af Dante Alighieri
Frightened and helpless, Dante is desperate to join his Beloved Beatrice at the gates of Heaven. But fate and fear have other plans. He’s sins have landed him at the beginning of a soulless and sacrilegious journey. He must now climb through Hell in search of redemption. There’s only one way in, with little way out.
As Dante cleanses his soul, he journeys through the nine circles of Hell and seven terraces of Purgatory. Who will he meet along the way? And what wrongs have they reckoned with to end up in God's burning Inferno? And most importantly, can Dante reach redemption to secure his seat in Heaven?
Celebrated as a cultural pillar of religious understanding, ‘The Divine Comedy’ is a must-read poetic narrative for fans of T.S. Eliot's ´The Waste Land´ and John Milton's ´Paradise Lost´.
Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) was an Italian poet, writer and philosopher, celebrated as the ‘father’ of the Italian language. His ‘Divine Comedy’ is widely celebrated as one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary works in the Italian language. The work was instrumental in shaping the Western world’s understanding of Hell, Purgatory and Heaven and continues to influence depictions across all art forms today.
