Más información sobre el libro

At its core, the narrative explores humanity's quest for divine understanding through an allegorical journey across Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. Divided into three sections—Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso—Dante's work intertwines rich historical, moral, and political themes, elevating it beyond mere allegory. Written in Italian, a departure from the norm of Latin, it aimed to reach a broader audience. This edition features the first volume translated into English verse by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, highlighting its enduring influence and literary significance.
