What this book is about
Il capolavoro di Dante Alighieri, scritto tra il 1308 e il 1320, è il poema epico più importante della letteratura italiana e uno dei pilastri della letteratura mondiale. Diviso in tre cantiche — Inferno, Purgatorio e Paradiso — descrive il viaggio immaginario del poeta attraverso i regni dell'oltretomba, guidato prima dal poeta latino Virgilio e poi da Beatrice. L'opera ha definito la lingua italiana letteraria e ha influenzato secoli di arte, musica e letteratura.
