Forlagsbeskrivelse af The Divine Comedy af Dante Alighieri
For the first time in one volume, the most elegant and accessible translation of Dante"™s enduring masterpiece Charles Singleton"™s English-language translation of The Divine Comedy is widely considered to be one of the finest renderings of Dante"™s masterpiece. Singleton"™s prose is both faithful and scholarly, and sensitive to the subtle nuances of meaning and richness of reference in Dante"™s epic poem. Here for the first time is the single-volume edition of Singleton"™s celebrated translation. This beautifully illustrated book brings together all three volumes of Dante"™s poem, describing his travels down to the circles of Hell, up over the mountain of Purgatory, and his ultimate ascension through the celestial spheres of Paradise. Dante"™s divine tour provides a timeless allegory for the journey of one"™s soul toward union with God. Featuring an incisive introduction by Simone Marchesi, a glossary, and stunning illustrations by acclaimed artist Roberto Abbiati, this handsome edition of The Divine Comedy introduces a new generation of readers to what is perhaps the preeminent achievement of Italian literature.
