The authoritative translations of The Inferno, The Purgatorio, and The Paradiso—together in one volume.
Belonging in the immortal company of the great works of literature, Dante Alighieri’s poetic masterpiece, The Divine Comedy,
is a moving human drama, an unforgettable visionary journey through the
infinite torment of Hell, up the arduous slopes of Purgatory, and on to
the glorious realm of Paradise—the sphere of universal harmony and
eternal salvation.
Now, for the first time, John Ciardi’s brilliant and authoritative translations of Dante’s three soaring canticles—The Inferno, The Purgatorio, and The Paradiso—have
been gathered together in a single volume. Crystallizing the power and
beauty inherent in the great poet’s immortal conception of the aspiring
soul, The Divine Comedy is a dazzling work of sublime truth and mystical intensity.
