Set in the Middle Ages, this epic poem follows the journey of the protagonist through the realms of the afterlife: Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. Guided by the Roman poet Virgil and later by Beatrice, Dante explores themes of sin, redemption, and divine love. Richly allegorical, it reflects the spiritual and philosophical concerns of its time, offering profound insights into morality and human existence. The work is celebrated for its vivid imagery and intricate structure, making it a cornerstone of world literature.
