Inferno

About “Inferno”

Inferno is the first part of Dante Alighieri's 14th-century narrative poem The Divine Comedy, followed by Purgatorio and Paradiso. The poem follows a fictionalized version of Dante as he travels through Hell, guided by the Roman poet Virgil. Hell is portrayed as nine concentric circles of punishment, representing different sins. The work serves as an allegory for the soul's journey toward God, with the Inferno focusing on the recognition and rejection of sin. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
