Dante Alighieri - Pokol - Nádasdy Adam fordítása

Around 1300, Dante decided that he would write a world-famous work, something that had not been written for a thousand years. And he succeeded, because he did not write a tragedy, but - as he called it - a comedy. The Divine Comedy can often be funny because it was written by a bitter man. He firmly believed in God, but he is forced to admit: God cannot be understood anyway. And - fortunately for us - he made a great discovery: it is not God who must be understood, but people, God's creatures. Perhaps by watching them we will learn what He is like.
Translated by Ádám Nádasdy, the most exciting part of the Divine Play, Hell, can also be read in a separate volume, with notes and an afterword.
