Description

Dante Alighieri, as the greatest Italian poet, writes the Divine Comedy (La Divina Commedia) between 1308-1321, which is recognized as one of the most significant works of world literature.

In his narrative poetic composition, Dante reveals, centuries later, with an incomparably creative vision, rich meanings of spiritual ascent and divine revelation, while at the same time, his work reflects the political and historical climate of his time, humanity as a whole, the wisdom and passions of the classical medieval world, unveiling the historical period that unfolded before him.

The symbols and precise use of elements enrich the entire work. The Divine Comedy consists of three parts: Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise - and narrates Dante's imaginary journey to the realm of the dead, guided by his teacher, the poet Virgil, and his youthful love, Beatrice.

It includes the original illustrations (Engravings) by Gustave Doré, and over 2800 explanatory footnotes.

    The rating refers to the edition and not the content itself, since little can be said about this classic work.

    This specific edition is a bad translation from English, which often makes the text incomprehensible. The paper is of low quality and the page decorations look like imitations.

    On the positive side, the hardcover and illustrations are good.

    I would prefer an edition that respects the Greek audience, or alternatively an English one.
