Description: Title: The Portable Dante Author: Alighieri, Dante Publisher: Penguin Group Binding: Paperback Pages: 704 Dimensions: 7.72h x 5.08w x 1.33d Product Weight: 1.07 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780142437544 The famed Italian poet Dante Alighieri's two masterworks--The Divine Comedy and La Vita Nuova--in one volume A Penguin Classic As a philosopher, he wedded classical methods of inquiry to a Christian faith. As an autobiographer, he looked unsparingly at his own failures to depict universal struggles. As a visionary, he dared draw maps of Hell, with Purgatory and Paradise, and populate all three realms with recognizable human beings. As a passionate lover, he became a poet of bereavement and renunication. As all of these, Dante Alighieri paved the way for modern literature, while creating verse and prose that remain unparalleled for formal elegance, intellectual depth, and emotional grandeur. The Portable Dante captures the scope and fire of Dante's genius as thoroughly as any single volume can. It contains complete verse translations of The Divine Comedy and La Vita Nuova, as well as a bibliography, notes, and an introduction by the eminent scholar and translator Mark Musa.
