Canto X of Dante Alighieri’s Inferno starts with Virgil and Dante on their way to the sixth circle. The sixth circle is where the tombs of those who believe that the soul dies with the body are put. We call them Epicureans. Dante then meets two Epicureans. The first one‚ Farinata degli Uberti notices Dante because of his accent. Farinata asks who his ancestors are and finds out that they were his enemies. The conversation goes on until another Epicurean appears‚ Cavalcante dei Cavalcanti. Dante and Cavalcante

In Dante’s Inferno‚ Dante incorporates Virgil’s depiction of the Underworld from The Aeneid into his poem‚ and borrows much of Virgil’s language‚ style‚ and content.

Virgil’s underworld stands largely undifferentiated‚ and Aeneas walks through it without taking any specific notice of the landscape

Robert Herrick‚ an English poet‚ once said‚ “Hell is no other but a soundlesse pit‚ where no one beame of comfort peeps in it.” Picture any type of Hell with relief‚ happiness‚ or even the smallest crack of a smile. There is no place. In fact‚ one can only think of the complete opposite‚ whether it is a Hell filled with neglect‚ pain‚ disgust‚ or a never-ending life of horror. This is the place created by Dante Alighieri; The Inferno is exactly the type of Hell where no person would want to be. Even those

The thirteenth canto of Dante’s The Inferno clearly depicts several of the different themes that can be seen throughout the poem.

The images and language Dante uses to describe his experiences in the middle ring of the seventh circle of Hell‚ which houses the suicides‚ provide the reader with the feeling of

poetry‚ The Inferno of Dante translation by Robert Pinsky (1320)‚ Dante Alighieri claims that a person’s inability to restrain their emotions with reason leads to the person becoming a sinner in one way or another.

Hell. The four lettered word that trembles in the throats of men and children alike; The images of suffering‚ flame pits and blood‚ the smell of burning flesh‚ the shrieking of those who have fallen from grace. For centuries man has sought out ways to cleanse his soul‚ to repent for his sins and possibly secure his passage into paradise‚ all evoked by the fear of eternal damnation and pain.

The Inferno written by Dante is a haunting and gruesome tale of one man’s journey through hell. Taking place in 1300 Dante writes about a character named Dante. Throughout the book we are not sure if the character is strictly sketched out like Dante himself or just simply named Dante. Most scholars of Dante believe that he used the name Dante but suggest that no evidence has been given to support the character Dante being based on the poet Dante. The Inferno is about Dante’s travels through hell with
