Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri, Vol. 1: Hell I have tried to be as literal in my translation as was consistent with good English, and to render Dante's own words in words as nearly correspond ent to them as the difierence in the languages would permit. But it is to be remembered that the familiar uses and subtle associations which give to words their full meaning are never abso lntaly the same in two languages. Love in Eng lish not only sounds but is difierent from amor in Latin, or amore in Italian. Even the most felicitous prose translation must fail therefore at times to aflord the entire and meaning of the original.

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.

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. Everyman’s Library Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Divina Commedia of Dante Alighieri, Vol. 1 of 3: Consisting of the Inferno Purgatorio and Paradiso Few Dedicators fet out with a profefiion, that they intend to addrefs their Patrons at their own ewpence, although this may fome times be really the cafe. This, however, is literally true with refpeet to me. Before the late Rebellion, I was happy in your ilord ihip's protection and fociety. Yet, though under many obligations, the remembrance of which is indelible; though my fituation was endeared to me by a coincidence of tafte in our literary purfuits, I fuffered the terrors of men to drive me from my pofi, when with you I might be now contemplating the works of God in the wonders of Chemifiry; the deep impreifion of which on your Lordihip's mind, you have often expreifed in converfa tion with me.

Download or read book La Divina Commedia written by Dante Alighieri and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from La Divina Commedia: The Divine Comedy As to the form and phrasing of this translation, a few explanations seem desirable. This is a line-for-line translation retaining the original rime-form, - terza rima, or triple rime. In using the expression "line-for-line translation," it is not meant to imply that every line will be found in the translation in the exact place where it is found in the original. The substance of every sentence or paragraph presents itself to the translator as material to be freely rehandled in accordance with the exigencies of the rime and the requirements of English idiom. It will be found that the number of lines in every canto of the translation corresponds to that of the original. In conformity with the genius of our language and the practice of our poets, the Italian hendecasyllabic line is rendered by the normal English line of ten syllables. As almost every Italian word ends with a vowel sound, the feminine or double rime, involving a line of eleven syllables, is normal in that language. To what issue the attempt to transplant the Italian eleven-syllable line into English leads, has been shown by the experiment of Lee-Hamilton with the Inferno. Like other poets of our tongue, I have introduced the eleven-syllable lines here and there, sometimes in considerable numbers, with a view to special expressiveness. With respect to the choice of the English triple rime, I will frankly admit that the late Professor Charles Eliot Norton very strongly, although very kindly, advised me against it. Certainly there was little to encourage one in the results attained by those who had previously attempted to render the Poem in this form. To argue that because no one had succeeded with terza rima in English, failure was necessarily a foregone conclusion, seemed to me a plain begging of the question.
