Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Dante's Inferno The mcious holding of certain opinions is often the cause of divorce between logic and action, erasing from the mind all that was patiently learned in the hard school of experience. And so it comes to pass that some do still persist in making the great Tuscan say what he neither meant, nor thought of saying.

Download or read book Inferno The Divine Comedy I written by Dante and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describing Dante's descent into Hell midway through his life with Virgil as a guide, Inferno depicts a cruel underworld in which desperate figures are condemned to eternal damnation for committing one or more of seven deadly sins. As he descends through nine concentric circles of increasingly agonising torture, Dante encounters doomed souls including the pagan Aeneas, the liar Odysseus, the suicide Cleopatra, and his own political enemies, damned for their deceit. Led by leering demons, the poet must ultimately journey with Virgil to the deepest level of all. For it is only by encountering Satan, in the heart of Hell, that he can truly understand the tragedy of sin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exiles of Eternity: An Exposition of Dante's Inferno Many readers the punishments of the Inferno are little more than so many arbitrary and meaningless tortures, suggested by the play of a powerful but savage medieaval imagination; and I have tried to remove this utterly false impression.

And sym bolic forms in which he shadows forth the natural and inevitable moral and spiritual issues of the various sins. Hell as an external place may or may not exist; but he compels us to feel its reality as a state of the wicked and impenitent soul, by showing us the awful recoil of its own evil on itself.

Download or read book The Divine Comedy written by Dante Alighieri and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 831 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautiful hardcover edition–containing all three cantos, Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso–includes an introduction by Nobel Prize-winning poet Eugenio Montale, a chronology, notes, and a bibliography. Also included are forty-two drawings selected from Botticelli's marvelous late-fifteenth-century series of illustrations. The Divine Comedy begins in a shadowed forest on Good Friday in the year 1300. It proceeds on a journey that, in its intense recreation of the depths and the heights of human experience, has become the key with which Western civilization has sought to unlock the mystery of its own identity. Allen Mandelbaum’s astonishingly Dantean translation, which captures so much of the life of the original, renders whole for us the masterpiece of that genius whom our greatest poets have recognized as a central model for all poets. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

Jason Baxter, an expert on Dante, covers all the basic themes of the Divine Comedy, such as sin, redemption, virtue, and vice.
