Everyone is familiar with the famous story of Dante and his faithful companion Virgil's journey through the nine circles of Hell, through Purgatory, to Paradise. This work by the Italian master Dante Alighieri is considered an icon of Western literature and has inspired countless works of art across various genres for centuries. It combines an unprecedentedly detailed, vivid, and mythical fantasy world with transformative dialogues that have stimulated and challenged human imagination and encouraged the search for oneself, both 600 years ago and today.
