Dante For Beginners

Dante For Beginners takes the reader on a trip starting in hell and ending in heaven. The reader gets a quick introduction to Dante and his times. Next the reader meets a sweet lass named Beatrice and samples a bit of his other literary offerings such as the great feast the Convivio. But then it's on to the big one the Commedia and a canto by canto description of the entire work. Characters ideas and situations are described as they happen—no searching through end notes footnotes or field notes to distinguish Forese Donati Dante's pal from his evil brother Corso. The entire plan of the hereafter is simply mapped out. Dante For Beginners is a great vacation with history's greatest tourist Dante Alighieri.
