Awakening is pure purgatorial fire. We know it under other names as well: sharp angst, a sick feeling of dread, or - as Sartre's Roquentin says, the pivotal point at which the whole world becomes de trop - just Too Much to stomach (so the name of that book is Nausea).And at that moment, ordinary images become their negatives.Roquentin, that day, comes to a prise de conscience: the world of unbridled consumption is suddenly seen as a vision of pure horror. Much more than hypocritical, it is fake enough to warrant the appellation of absurdity.But, you know, the fun of the fair continues.And of course, the fairs of the 19th century commonly had freak shows: curious displays of such outcasts to society as people the hidden, curtained sickrooms of short stories like Ursula le Guin's The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas, or The Yellow Wallpaper.The voiceless victims.But, fret not - Dante Alighieri was such a one as these scarred victims when, in the end of the first book of his Divine Comedy, he staggered sightless, groping upwards from the riot of our society's own non-stop carnival into the dawn of a new day in a new world: Purgatory.And purgatory's just another word, if you can climb it, for no Illusions Left to Lose.For the price of admission to freak shows in hell is plenty of comfortable illusions - enough to turn us into jeering Roman citizens watching the Christians die in the Coliseum...But the price of admission to Paradise is to crave only the ingenuous vision of God, or Pure Being, so that you are glad to trash your illusory dreams. Yes, the ones who walk away with Dante from the infernal fair of Omelas walk away to glory.And I believe they can finally reiterate with Mallarme:Oh, you thunder and rubies in the mud,Tell me if I am not gladTo see in the air that this fire piercesThat the …

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
This is a great book, but does require the notes to make any sense of it. Hundreds of characters from Danté's Italy not to mention host of mythological and Biblical ones tended to distract me just reading the poetry and appreciating Dante's wonderful descriptions. I have to stop at the end of each chapter and read the notes to understand the context and people that Dante is referring to. I agree that it would be impossible to ever write this book without references to contemporary politics and so it probably felt dated in that manner even as Boccacio was writing Dante's biography and promoting this up-to-then banned masterpiece 50 years after Dante finished it. Perhaps a lot of postmodern literature will suffer from the same feeling of obsolescence? Am I a hypocrite because I also adore Pynchon, DFW, Proust and Joyce who also require dense footnotes to completely understand? Perhaps but my point was more that I have to read this in a stop and start manner and it takes a little away from the pleasure of reading straight through. All that being said, there is nothing in Western literature quite like the Divine Comedy and this central volume of 33 cantos is of unsurpassed depth and beauty.If I were to express this book in a picture, I would probably see something like this: http://www.comuseum.com/wp-content/up... from Dong Qichang (董其昌, 1555-1636) as it seems to express the long hazardous climb and yet the peaceful conclusion awaiting Dante at the top.

New content will be added above the current area of focus upon selection
After struggling through Inferno and having everyone tell me that it just gets worse, my hopes for Purgatorio and Paradiso were basically non-existent. I was bracing myself for a lengthy and boring reading experience and lots of frustration. Turns out, everyone was wrong! This book fucking slaps! I'm not kidding ... I really enjoyed myself! I think the game-changer for me was the fact that I read some summaries (online) and the commentary (at the back of the book) before each canto. With Inferno, I did it the other way around because I didn't wanna "spoil" myself but it just hindered my understanding of the text. The new technique was amazing because it enabled me to prepare for the canto and I could also specifically look for the passages in the text that spoke of certain events that were detailed in the summary or commentary. This way, I had no problem at all to understand what Dante was babbling about and was even able to form my own thoughts and join Dante's philosophical musings, at least in spirit. ;)Purgatorio picks right up where Inferno left off, at the base of Mount Purgatorio, which Dante and Virgil have to climb in order for Dante to ascend to Heaven. The mountain is structured into nine sections, the first two (base) levels are called "Ante-Purgatory" (on these levels the excommunicate and late repentants are punished and detained for a period 30 times as long as their period of contumacy on Earth), the next seven levels form the actual mountain and are structured around the capital vices (more commonly known as the seven deadly sins), in the following order: Pride - Envy - Wrath - Sloth - Avarice - Gluttony - Lust. Canto 1-9 are set in Ante-Purgatory where Dante, among other things, speculates with the penitent on the value of knowing why things were made in a certain …

Dante's Tour of Hell and What It Means
Inferno is the first part of Dante Alighieri's 14th-century epic poem Divine Comedy. It follows Dante's journey through Hell, guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. Hell is depicted as nine circles of torment, each punishing a different type of sin.
The publication of the Divine Comedy has had a monumental involvement with the Renaissance as a whole. For instance, the language that the Divine Comedy was written in.

Because of its significance over centuries, The Divine Comedy has been translated into several languages, even so, that Inferno has over 200 translations in English.
They had to cross the river Atcher on a boat to reach the first circle of the abyss, Limbo. However, the first circle contains people who did not accept Christ.
stilleducation.com
According to Dante’s Inferno 9 Circles of Hell, Dante, along with Virgil, arrives at Limbo, at the first circle of Hell, where Virgil himself resides.

The first installment of The Comedy, Dante’s Inferno, is an particularly brilliant narrative. He narrates his descent and observation of Hell through the assorted circles and pouches.
