Dante Alighieri composed the Divine Comedy over a period of 12 years, completing it in 1320. He divided the poem into three parts – Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso. It is the first canto from Inferno that we have reproduced here. Dante’s vision of the afterlife continues to inspire writers and artists around the world.
