Synopsis
A prize-winning translator presents a new verse translation of one of the most popular books of all time Dante€™s dramatic journey through the circles of hell in search of redemption—and his encounter with devils, monsters, and the souls of some of the greatest sinners who ever walked on earth—is one of the cornerstones of Western literature, the summit of medieval thinking, and arguably the highest poetic achievement of all time. Inferno, the first part of Dante€™s Comedy, is presented here in a new verse translation, together with facing Italian text, extensive notes, illustrations, and a critical apparatus focusing on the author€™s life and works.
