About the Author

Dante Alighieri was born in 1265 in Florence to a family of minor nobility. He entered into Florentine politics in 1295, but he and his party were forced into exile in a hostile political climate in 1301. Taking asylum in Ravenna late in life, Dante completed his Divine Commedia, considered one of the most important works of Western literature, before his death in 1321.

Leonardo Bruni was an influential political and cultural thinker of the 15th century. Alfred Scheepers is the author of "An Orientation in Indian Philosophy," "A Survey of Buddhist Thought," and "The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali,"
