The Divine Comedy: Leather-Bound Classics
Autor Dante Alighieri Ilustrat de Gustave Dore Traducere de Henry Wadsworth Longfellowen Limba Engleză Legat în piele – 12 aug 2025
Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso—the three fates of the deceased become the three pillars of an epic poem. The Divine Comedy, written by Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the fourteenth century, is considered the foremost work in Italian literature. The journey begins with Dante’s descent into the depths of Hell, where he witnesses those eternally separated from God. Then he climbs the mountain of Purgatory, where Christian souls undergo final purification, before he tours the celestial circles of Heaven, where he is filled with the image of God. An allegorical work, The Divine Comedy is representative of the soul’s journey toward God. Influential for seven centuries, this classic is a must-have for lovers of great literature, and this luxurious leather-bound edition from Canterbury Classics will make a stunning addition to any home library.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Ioana Andreia Sandru a dat nota:
It was rather hard to understand it and so I read it twice. The second time reading it was more enjoyable because I understood the poem better, and that helped me appreciate the power of imagination and creativity. Inferno is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in epic poetry.

Descriere

Recenzii
"The perfect balance of tightness and colloquialism . . . Likely to be the best modern version of Dante."
"Kirkpatrick brings a more nuanced sense of the Italian and a more mediated appreciation of the poem's construction than nearly all of his competitors."
"We gain much from Kirkpatrick's fidelity to syntax and nuance. . . . His introduction . . . tells you, very readable indeed, pretty much all you need for a heightened appreciation of the work."

This story begins in a shadowed forest on Good Friday in the year of our Lord 1300. It proceeds on a journey that, in its intense re-creation of the depths and the heights of human experience, has become the key with which Western civilization has sought to unlock the mystery of its own identity.
