Description: Dante Alighieri, one of the greatest poets of all time, belongs in the immortal company of Homer, Virgil, Milton, and Shakespeare. His poetic masterpiece, the Inferno, is an intense and moving human drama, an unforgettable viionary journey through the horrors of Hell, a vivid pageant of the Middle Ages, and the way of an individual soul from sin to purgatory.The Inferno describes Dante's visit to the lower realms of the next world. He passes through the giant gates with their prophetic inscription: Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here, through the nine circles of Hell, where anguished men and women expiate earthly sins of lust and greed, malice and betrayal, in varying degrees of torment.John Ciardi, a distinguished American poet, ha brilliantly rendered the Inferno into modern English, bringing it alive again, with all the burning clarity and universal relevance with which the thirteenth century genius originally endowed it.
