Status Updates From Die göttliche Komödie

With Inferno finished, it was nothing short of phenomenal unsurprisingly. For some context, I have always stated that Dante’s “The Divine Comedy” was my favorite story ever told. However, this is a new reading experience for me, as I am reading Henry Longfellow’s translation. An extremely fascinating translation that is lovely, but that I am not smart enough to understand its full beauty. A true achievement.

I love you, annotations and full summary at the beginning of each Canto.
So far lots of historical and mythological figures in the different levels of Hell lol.
I just can’t get over Dante not liking his wife at all and completely omitting her from all of his work, and then making it worse by writing a woman he didn’t even really know as his Divine Guide. Brutal
