Dante’s Invention

Dante’s Invention

Dante’s Invention

14th April 2015 by James Burge

Dante Alighieri was a self-absorbed young poet who composed rarefied verse about the nature of love. While medieval Florence descended into violent turmoil he seemed entirely uninterested in anything other than Beatrice, the girl he had loved since they were both children. Fate had to work very hard to make him write his great work, the Divine Comedy. This is the story of how it did so.
