1884 DANTE Divine Comedy Illustrated Inferno Paradise Purgatory Dore The Vision
Few works throughout the history of all written history have had such an impact on the readership of humanity. The Divine Comedy is Dante’s record of an allegorical journey through the spiritual realms of Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. This medieval classic depicts Classical themes, Christian history, and Medieval politics. It has been the inspiration for countless plays, art, books, pieces of music, movies, and more! This rare English edition translated by H.F. Cary, is Cary’s most famous and important work. In 1814, Cary published his translation on his own, as publishers would not take on the risk.
