Subject:
In the Divine Comedy, the 14th-century poet Dante imagines himself as a lost pilgrim who is taken on a journey through the three realms of the dead—Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise—by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. On his travels, Dante is given the challenge of exploring the darkest recesses of the human soul in an effort to understand the root of evil, sin, and ultimately, forgiveness. This 1814 translation by Henry Francis Clay is illustrated with petite reproductions of the iconic images of damnation created by 19th-century French illustrator Gustave Doré.
