The Workhellip The Divine Comedy a vernacular poem in

100 cantos (more than 14000 lines) was composed in exile

It is a magnificent synthesis of the medieval outlook picturing a changeless universe ordered by God

Acquainted with the NightRobert Frost

1048707 I have been one acquainted with the night

I have walked out in rain--and back in rain

I have outwalked the furthest city light

I have looked down the saddest city lane

I have passed by the watchman on his beat

And dropped my eyes unwilling to explain

Structurehellip After the initial canto the three major sections of the

work (The Inferno the Purgatorio and the Paradiso) are divided into 33 cantos representing the age of Christ when he died

The work also represents The Trinitybull The Inferno represents the power of God the Father

bull Purgatorio represents the wisdom of Christ the Son

bull Paradiso represents the love of the Holy Spirit

It is called a comedy because it ends happily

The Workhellip Dante uses real life characters and

autobiographical moments as well as eschatological (the body of religious doctrines concerning the human soul in its relation to death judgment heaven and hell) detail

The journey is a metaphor The pilgrim Dante is Everyman

The Workhellip Contrapasso ndash In Dantersquos Inferno there
