More about the book

The narrative explores man's quest for divinity through a profound allegorical journey divided into three parts: Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. Dante's work layers rich historical, moral, and political contexts, transcending simple allegory. Written in Italian to reach a broader audience, it defied the norm of Latin literary works at the time. This edition features the second volume, translated into English verse by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and includes an introduction by William Warren Vernon, making it a significant addition to literary collections.
