Synopsis

The long epic "Divine Comedy" (ca. 1307-1313) Is Dante's most important masterpiece and a landmark work in the history of European and world literature. Through the author's dialogues with various famous figures in hell, purgatory and heaven, it provides an artistic summary of the field of medieval culture, and also vaguely reveals the dawn of humanistic thought in the Renaissance era. The previous "Masterpieces of Foreign Literature Series" only included "The Divine Comedy: Inferno", and this time the other two will be included in the new series.

What a wonderful text, the beauty of modern Chinese language, the ready-to-express emotions and the awe of the sacred are wonderfully coordinated, rolled into a white cloud, creating this classic.
