As the first section of the long narrative poem&nbsp;<em>The Divine Comedy<\/em>&nbsp;(c. 1308\u201321), it is composed of three sections (or canticles) written in&nbsp;Italian.&nbsp;<em>The Divine Comedy<\/em>&nbsp;traces Dante\u2019s fictional journey from darkness and error to the&nbsp;revelation&nbsp;of the divine light, culminating in his beatific vision of God. The&nbsp;<em>Inferno<\/em>&nbsp;follows Dante, accompanied by the shade of the Roman poet&nbsp;Virgil, through&nbsp;Hell, where he witnesses a harrowing roster of the damned and their gruesome punishments. After navigating Hell, Dante journeys through&nbsp;Purgatory&nbsp;and&nbsp;Heaven, which are treated in the sections&nbsp;<em>Purgatorio<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Paradiso<\/em>, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-custom-color-4-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-5 wp-container-content-72558541 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0;font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The&nbsp;<em>Inferno<\/em>&nbsp;in particular occupies an enduring place in the cultural and&nbsp;religious imagination. Dante\u2019s \u201ccircles of Hell\u201d (and their sinful denizens) have inspired many artists, finding their way into works as varied as the paintings of English&nbsp;Romantic&nbsp;artist and poet&nbsp;William Blake, the sculptures of French sculptor&nbsp;Auguste Rodin, the poetry of Irish poet&nbsp;Seamus Heaney, and the irreverent humor of American pop&nbsp;culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-custom-color-4-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-6 wp-container-content-72558541 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0;font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">The&nbsp;<em>Inferno<\/em>\u2019s function as a story in its own right is reflected in the structure of&nbsp;<em>The Divine Comedy<\/em>. It is composed of 100&nbsp;cantos, which&nbsp;constitute&nbsp;the major divisions of an&nbsp;epic&nbsp;or another kind of long narrative poem. There are 33 cantos in each of the three sections of&nbsp;<em>The Divine Comedy<\/em>, plus an additional canto\u2014that is, the prologue of the&nbsp;<em>Inferno<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:23px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4d6339ab wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-dbfbc6bc wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;background-color:#fff6e6;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);box-shadow:var(--wp--preset--shadow--natural)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-custom-color-4-color has-text-color has-link-color has-evans-font-family has-small-font-size wp-elements-7 wp-container-content-69bc4bdf wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\">RECOMMENDED BY<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-custom-color-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-8 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:5px;padding-bottom:0\">Rams<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);font-style:italic;font-weight:600\">\u201c\u201cLove, which quickly arrests the gentle heart,<br>Seized him with my beautiful form<br>That was taken from me, in a manner which still grieves me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-custom-color-3-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-10 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">\u25b8 I\u2019m not in any way religious, I just think that it\u2019s interesting how so many people took this <strong>FICTIONAL<\/strong> literary piece as canon.
