The Divine Comedy describes Dante's descent into Hell with Virgil as a guide, his ascent of Mount Purgatory and his encounter with his dead love Beatrice, and finally, his arrival in Heaven.

This major translation is published here for the first time in a single volume.

In seiner berühmten Dichtung durchschreitet Dante das Jenseits: von der Hölle über das Fegefeuer bis hin zum Paradies. An der Seite des römischen Dichters Vergil und seiner Jugendliebe Beatrice begegnet er auf seiner Reise Sündern und Gerechten, spricht mit den Seelen berühmter Verstorbener und ist am Ende dem Sinn des Lebens ganz nah. Dante Alighieri, geboren 1265 in Florenz, schuf mit seiner "Göttlichen Komödie" nicht nur die erste herausragende Dichtung in italienischer Sprache, sondern zugleich eines der bedeutendsten Werke der abendländischen Literatur.

"Als ich die Göttliche Komödie zum ersten Mal las", erzählt der große Dante-Verehrer Jorge Louis Borges, "habe ich mich von der Lektüre forttragen lassen".

Did I always believe in magic? Not until today. Sure, I had seen my mother's ghost, but I'd managed to rationalize that.

I have a few beautiful women and a disgraced mage genius to help me figure out why my powers are so unique.
