    Themes of Dante’s Inferno Dante’s Inferno exemplifies a Hell in which God’s justice is just as perfect as everything else he does. Each division of Hell along with the punishments within them seem to directly correspond to the sins man had commited on Earth.

    I believe that “The Preface” by Edward Taylor exhibits the ideology of Calvinism. For example‚ in line 41 on page 108‚ it says “But Nothing man did throw down all by Sin”‚ which goes with the statement above that says we are completely sinful.

Line 42 is also restating part of the statement above‚ where it says “Sin has affected all parts of man. The heart‚ emotions
