This was an uncommon practice at the time for serious literary works, which would traditionally be written in Latin.

Dante Alighieris poetic masterpiece, The Divine Comedy, is a moving human drama, an unforgettable visionary journey through the infinite torment of Hell, up the arduous slopes of Purgatory, and on to the glorious realm of Paradise-the sphere of universal harmony and eternal salvation.

On the evening of Good Friday in the year 1300, Dante finds himself lost in a dark and menacing wood. The ghost of Virgil offers to lead him to safety but the path lies through the terrifying kingdom of Satan. On his journey deep into the underworld, Dante crosses paths with both old acquaintances and famous persons from history as he witnesses the strange and gruesome sufferings of the damned on the seven levels of hell. This is Dantes infamously dramatic, frightening, and sardonic look at the nature of sin, Christianity, and human morality.
