This paper discusses and analyzes Inferno, by Alighieri Dante.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce, discuss, and analyze the book Inferno, by Alighieri Dante. Specifically, it describes two characters, Beatrice and Lucifer. Beatrice and Lucifer could not be farther apart in this poem. They represent good and evil, savior versus destroyer, and they are both present in the poem in order to illustrate the ultimate theme of good versus evil, and Dante’s ultimate salvation.
`The `Inferno` is the first of three books that make up Dante’s classical work The Divine Comedy. The Inferno follows Dante’s journey through Hell on his route to finding God. He begins at the bottom in sin, and must fight his way to the top, where lovely Beatrice awaits him in Paradise.`
