Examples Of The 7 Deadly Sins In Dantes Inferno
The quote Joseph Campbell said of myths, but the same could be said of much of literature that “at the bottom of the abyss comes the voice of salvation. At the darkest moment comes the light.” This quote symbolizes at the worse of time comes salvation but when something good and new upraises a light of brilliance appears. Like the Book Dante’s Inferno it symbolizes that Dante went through hell with Virgil just to meet Beatrice. He went through which was horrible disgusting difficult. But at the end he met Beatrice and was happy well not really but he did feel a lift off his chest that he finally reached and after going through all of that. Dante imagined something cool his imagination was wonderful and creative. Hell is horrible he went through the 7 Deadly Sins. Which was Pride which meant excessive belief in one's own abilities that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity. Then there’s Envy which is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation. Third one is Gluttony which is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires. Fourth is Lust which

is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body. Fifth is anger which is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath. Sixth is Greed which is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spirtual. Seventh is Sloth which is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work. A Next example of a Book I would use is Of Mice and Men in this book the ending was horrible I started crying.
But at the end some people where happy some weren’t. The sad part was that Lennie died very harshly. He did some horrible things but no one should be killed the way him and Curly’s wife did. What I’m trying to say is many people say a light a flicker at the end something that woke them up. Lennie’s death is what woke them up the book showed that more readers felt worse for lennie then Curly’s Wife. I think it’s because lennie was one the main characters and he had many dreams even though he was sick. Curly’s wife was something surprising but for me not something to cry over. This quote symbolizes these two books very well if you look very deep into
it.
In Conclusion, I think these two books interpret the quote pretty good you just have to look deep into it to realize it. At the end of these two books there was something that woke up these characters. When the books started they introduced them self’s but as the story goes on its gets worse. In Of Mine and Men George’s best friend was Lennie they dreamt all their dreams together and wanted them to come true. They wanted their own farm with a lot of animals and not be bossed around. There’s get bad then worse it goes back and forth there’s either a good beginning with a bad ending, or a bad beginning and great ending. All Books are different and this quote kind of explains some books I read like The Inferno and Of Mice and Men.
