Description

Dante's radiant climax to his epic poem is presented in this definitive new translation. Having plunged to the depths of Hell and climbed Mount Purgatory, Dante now ascends to Heaven, guided by Beatrice, as he searches for God. This edition combines Robin Kirkpatrick's impressive translation with Dante's original Italian. The Divine Comedy Volume 3: Paradiso examines eternal questions of faith, desire, and enlightenment, showcasing Dante's mastery of his craft. With this new translation alongside the original text, readers can experience one of the greatest Christian allegories in full. Published by National Geographic Books, this edition is part of Penguin Classics, a leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
