The Divine Comedy 1: Hell
product-details.description-label
'Abandon all hope, you who enter here'
Frightened and helpless, Dante is desperate to escape the darkened wood and join his Beloved Beatrice at the gates of Heaven. But fate and fear have other plans. His Vigil can do little to stop the wrath of God. Nor can Dante hope to escape the clutches of the leopard, lion and she-wolf, all guarding his path. There's only one way in – with no way out.
As he climbs the stairway to Hell, Dante's realisation, recognition and rejection of sin must begin. But who will he meet along the way? And what wrongs have they reckoned with to end up in God's burning Inferno?
Weaving a profoundly philosophical tale of heaven and hell, sin and sacrifice, Dante's 'The Divine Comedy 1: Hell' is the ultimate and original depiction of a soul's journey toward God. Set on Good Friday, the year 1300, Dante's first instalment of his epic poetic narrative is ideal for film fans of 'Dante's Hell'. It remains today one of the greatest works of world literature.

product-details.about-author:
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.
