Dante's Divine Comedy is regarded as a masterpiece of medieval     literature, telling the story of Dante's descent into hell, his  journey    through purgatory and eventual ascent into heaven, with  Virgil as his   guide. Along with stirring adventures and boundless imagination are Dante's  reflections on spirituality and the nature of faith and reason in the  world. From the pilgrim's deepening insight into the workings of evil and moral   choice (Hell) through to the dramatization of the nature and purpose  of  moral conversion (Purgatory) to the blissfully mystical ascent  before  God (Paradise), Dante's cosmic vision remains unparalleled.   This beautiful hardback edition, with gold foil accents and stunning  printed edges, includes Henry W. Longfellow's classic translation, 135  magnificent, full-page illustrations by Gustave Dor� and a brilliant introduction  by Anna Amari-Parker, full of accessible analysis of Dante's allegorical  tale.
