This convenient single-volume edition contains all three parts of Dante's 14th-century allegorical poem - Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso - in an acclaimed translation by American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Combining classical and Christian history as well as medieval politics and religion, this trilogy is among Western civilization's most important artistic works and essential reading for students of literature and history.

Author Biography:

Florentine poet Dante Alighieri (1265 - 1321) is best known for The Divine Comedy, a three-part epic poem that progresses from Hell to Purgatory to Paradise. Written in the vernacular, rather than Latin or Greek, Dante's masterpiece immediately found a wide audience; it is considered the greatest work of Italian literature and its author is regarded as the father of modern Italian. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 - 1882), author of The Song of Hiawatha and other beloved poems, was Professor of Modern Languages at Harvard University.
