[Italian] - Divina Commedia - Inferno - Canto I
L'Inferno, la prima delle tre cantiche, si apre con un Canto introduttivo (che serve da proemio all'intera opera), nel quale il poeta Dante Alighieri racconta in prima persona del suo smarrimento spirituale e dell’incontro con Virgilio, che lo condurrà poi ad intraprendere il viaggio ultraterreno raccontato magistralmente nelle tre cantiche. Dante si ritrae, infatti, 'in una selva oscura', allegoria del peccato, nella quale era giunto avendo smarrito la 'retta via', la via della virtù, e giunto alla fine della valle (“valle” come “selva oscura” sono allegorie entrambe dell’abisso della perdizione morale ed intellettuale) scorge un colle illuminato dal sole 'vestito già dei raggi del pianeta/che mena dritto altrui per ogne calle'.

La Divina Comedia es una de las obras señeras de la humanidad. Nadie hasta hoy ha logrado alcanzar las cumbres de la inspiración y la fantasía arrebatadora de que hace gala el genial florentino en su poema inmortal. Guiado por Virgilio y de la mano de Beatriz, su angelical enamorada, Dante canta con pavorosos acentos los horrores del Infierno y del Purgatorio, hasta alcanzar la dulce y armoniosa paz del Paraíso, donde su inspiración poética llega a su plenitud.

L'Inferno è la prima delle tre cantiche della Divina Commedia di Dante Alighieri, corrispondente al primo dei Tre Regni dell'Oltretomba dove regna Lucifero (che originariamente significava «angelo della luce») e il primo luogo visitato da Dante nel suo pellegrinaggio ultraterreno, viaggio destinato a portarlo alla Salvezza. Il mondo dei dannati, suddiviso secondo una precisa logica morale derivante dall'Etica Nicomachea di Aristotele, è frutto della somma e della sintesi del sapere a lui contemporaneo. L'inferno dantesco è il luogo della miseria morale in cui versa l'umanità decaduta, privata ormai della Grazia divina capace di illuminare le azioni degli uomini. Le successive cantiche sono il Purgatorio ed il Paradiso.

Audiobook
A sparkling translation that gives new life in English to Dante's Vita Nuova, his transcendent love poems and influential statement on the art and power of poetry, and the most widely read of his works after the Inferno A Penguin Classic Dante was only nine years old when he first met young Beatrice in Florence. Loving her for the rest of his life with a devotion undiminished by even her untimely death, he would dedicate himself to transfiguring her, through poetry, into something far more than a muse-she would become the very proof of love as transcendent spiritual power, and the adoration of her a radiant path into a "new life." Censored by the Church, written in the Tuscan vernacular rather than Latin, exploding the courtly love tradition of the medieval troubadours, and employing an unprecedented hybrid form to link the thirty-one poems with prose commentary, Vita Nuova, first published in 1294, represents both an innovation in the literature of love and the work of Dante's that brings this extraordinary poet into clearest view. This limpid new translation, based on the latest authoritative Italian edition, captures the ineffable quality of a work that has inspired the likes of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Charles Baudelaire, T. S. Eliot, Jorge Luis Borges, Robert Penn Warren, and Louise Glück, and sustains the long afterlife of a masterpiece that is itself a key to the ultimate poetic journey into the afterlife, The Divine Comedy. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

The Divine Comedy: Inferno, Purgatory, Paradise
The Divine Comedy (La Divina Commedia) by Dante Alighieri. A 'comedy', that became a 'divine book' for ancestors, is one of the greatest works of art known to the world. It is an encyclopedia of 'moral, natural, philosophical and theological' knowledges, a tremendous synthesis of the feudal catholic ideology and the same tremendous epiphany that spread during the new culture times. A great poetic genius of the author put this comedy above the era and made it a legacy of centuries. It is divided into three parts: Inferno, Purgatory, Paradise.

Inferno (Italian: [i??f?rno]; Italian for 'Hell') is the first part of Italian writer Dante Alighieri's 14th-century epic poem Divine Comedy. It is followed by Purgatorio and Paradiso. The Inferno tells the journey of Dante through Hell, guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. In the poem, Hell is depicted as nine concentric circles of torment located within the Earth; it is the 'realm ... of those who have rejected spiritual values by yielding to bestial appetites or violence, or by perverting their human intellect to fraud or malice against their fellowmen'. As an allegory, the Divine Comedy represents the journey of the soul toward God, with the Inferno describing the recognition and rejection of sin. An initial canto, serving as an introduction to the poem and generally considered to be part of the first cantica, brings the total number of cantos to 100.

Purgatorio (Italian: [pur?a?t??rjo]; Italian for 'Purgatory') is the second part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno, and preceding the Paradiso. The poem was written in the early 14th century. It is an allegory telling of the climb of Dante up the Mount of Purgatory, guided by the Roman poet Virgil, except for the last four cantos at which point Beatrice takes over as Dante's guide. Purgatory in the poem is depicted as a mountain in the Southern Hemisphere, consisting of a bottom section (Ante-Purgatory), seven levels of suffering and spiritual growth (associated with the seven deadly sins), and finally the Earthly Paradise at the top. Allegorically, the Purgatorio represents the penitent Christian life. In describing the climb Dante discusses the nature of sin, examples of vice and virtue, as well as moral issues in politics and in the Church. The poem outlines a theory that all sins arise from love - either perverted love directed towards others' harm, or deficient love, or the disordered or excessive love of good things.

Audiobook
Paradiso (Italian: [para?di?zo]; Italian for 'Paradise' or 'Heaven') is the third and final part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno and the Purgatorio. It is an allegory telling of Dante's journey through Heaven, guided by Beatrice, who symbolises theology. In the poem, Paradise is depicted as a series of concentric spheres surrounding the Earth, consisting of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the Fixed Stars, the Primum Mobile and finally, the Empyrean. It was written in the early 14th century. Allegorically, the poem represents the soul's ascent to God. While the structures of the Inferno and Purgatorio were based around different classifications of sin, the structure of the Paradiso is based on the four cardinal virtues (Prudence, Justice, Temperance, and Fortitude) and the three theological virtues (Faith, Hope, and Charity).
