About Author

Dante Alighieri

Dante was an Italian poet of the Middle Ages. The name Dante is, according to the words of Jacopo Alighieri, a hypocorism for Durante. In contemporary documents it is followed by the patronymic Alagherii or de Alagheriis; it was Boccaccio who popularized the form Alighieri. : Painter of this picture of Dante is Sandro Botticelli, See the new edition of the comedy published by Ateliê Editorial of São Paulo, Brazil, trabslation in verso terza rima complete by João Trentino Ziller

First sentence

DANTE STATES his supreme theme as Paradise itself and invokes the aid not only of the Muses but of Apollo...

Description

The Divine Comedy stands as one of the towering creations of world literature, and its climactic section, the Paradiso, is perhaps the most ambitious poetic attempt ever made to represent the merging of individual destiny with universal order. Having passed through Hell and Purgatory, Dante is led by his beloved Beatrice to the upper sphere of Paradise, wherein lie the sublime truths of Divine will and eternal salvation, to at last experience a rapturous vision of God.
