Inhaltsangabe

This translation of Dante's "Inferno" aims to preserve Dante's natural style while capturing the movement of the original Italian verse. The blank verse rendition of the poet's journey through the circles of hell re-creates for the modern reader the meanings Dante's poem had for contemporaries.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dante Alighieri was born in Florence in 1265 and belonged to a noble but impoverished family. He met Beatrice, who was to be his muse, in 1274, and when she died in 1290 he sought distraction in philosophy and theology, and wrote La Vita Nuova. He worked on the Divine Comedy from 1308 until near the time of his death in Ravenna in 1321.
