Download or read book The Comedy of Dante Alighieri Canticle 1 Hell written by Dante Alighieri and published by Scripsi. This book was released on 2010 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this new translation of its first canticle, Hell, the precise meaning of the original is allowed to come across without recourse to literalness or loss of poetic feel. In addition, the novel use of tetrameters ensures the lively rhythms of the original are captured better than by using the more traditional blank verse. Similar novelty may be found in the redesign of forty-two of Gustave Doré’s original engravings to convey a striking vision of a stark, bleak and desolate Hell; there are also two new maps of both Hell and Dante’s universe. With nearly a hundred pages of notes to help the reader who is unfamiliar with Dante and his world, this is a translation that can be readily understood by anyone ..." publisher's blurb.

Book excerpt: "Tom Simone's translation is simply superb. Of all the translations with which I am familiar, this is the one that is the most faithful to what's there in the Italian: no frills, no poetic sallies, no choosing a word because it brings the line closer to iambic pentameter—just unadulterated Dante with good old Anglo-Saxon words and in highly readable prose." —Peter Kalkavage, St. John's University

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Divine Comedy" or "Divina Commedia" is considered the masterwork of Italian literature. Written between 1308 and 1321, it is the most well known of Dante Alighieri's poems. It is translated by Thomas William Parsons and contains the first of three canticles, known as "Inferno," providing readers with the opportunity to read some of the most heralded literature ever composed. "The Divine Comedy" follows the author on his allegorical journey through hell, purgatory, and heaven. The poem "Inferno" is about hell, and consists of thirty-four cantos, each composed of three line tercets. Alighieri's hell is made up of nine circles of suffering on Earth, which the author navigates throughout the poem. Guided by Roman poet Virgil, Alighieri is attempting to cleanse himself through the rejection of sin. The nine circles of hell are explained in detail, with each circle reserved for a different level of sinner. "Inferno" concludes with Alighieri and Virgil escaping hell and passing through to purgatory, which is the subject of the second of "The Divine Comedy's" canticles. The epic poem is a work of genius. The structure, story, and execution are all brilliant, and it becomes clear to the reader why this work is held in such high regard. The book is best appreciated by those with experience reading epic poetry, although there is truly no better introduction to the genre than the work of Alighieri. "The First Canticle, Inferno of the Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri" is one of the great works of literature. The English translation presented here is highly recommended to all readers as one of the most influential texts ever written.

Download or read book The Divine Comedy 1 Hell written by Dante Alighieri and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Inferno" tells the story "of those who have rejected spiritual values", of those who are lost and are unable to find the right way to salvation. It describes each sin and the corresponding punishment. It differentiates between Purgatory and Hell by presenting people begging for forgiveness and others willing to justify their sins. "Inferno" represents the Christian soul who gets to see what it really is to commit a sin and what is to be expected in the afterlife. "Inferno" is the first part of Dante Alighieri’s medieval poem "The Divine Comedy" which was written in the period 1308-1320. It depicts the nine circles of Hell and Dante’s journey through them. Dante Alighieri was an Italian poet, philosopher, language and political theorist, born in Florence in 1265. He is one of the best known poets of the Middle Ages and his masterpiece "The Divine Comedy" is considered to be a representative of the medieval world-view. "The Divine Comedy" and "The New life" were written in vernacular, i.e. the speech variety that was used in everyday life. This made the literature accessible to most people and this is mainly why Dante is called "The father of Italian language". Dante’s life was divided by poetry and politics and the relationships between secular and religious authority were topics which were often depicted in his literary works.
