The Divine Comedy

English

By (author): Dante Alighieri

Translated by: Charles S. Singleton

Illustrated by: Roberto Abbiati

For the first time in one volume, the most elegant and accessible translation of Dantes enduring masterpiece

Charles Singletons English-language translation of The Divine Comedy is widely considered to be one of the finest renderings of Dantes masterpiece. Singletons prose is both faithful and scholarly, and sensitive to the subtle nuances of meaning and richness of reference in Dantes epic poem. Here for the first time is the single-volume edition of Singletons celebrated translation.

This beautifully illustrated book brings together all three volumes of Dantes poem, describing his travels down to the circles of Hell, up over the mountain of Purgatory, and his ultimate ascension through the celestial spheres of Paradise. Dantes divine tour provides a timeless allegory for the journey of ones soul toward union with God.

Featuring an incisive introduction by Simone Marchesi, a glossary, and stunning illustrations by acclaimed artist Roberto Abbiati, this handsome edition of The Divine Comedy introduces a new generation of readers to what is perhaps the preeminent achievement of Italian literature.
