| | The Classic Text: Dante Alighieri |
| | In 1555, a fine edition of his Commedia was published in Venice with the adjective divine applied to the poem's title for the first time, resulting in the title still in use today, The Divine Comedy. | | | he Divine Comedy is also important for its place in the history of the development of the Italian language. | | | Dante's literal journeyis also an allegory of the progress of the individual soul toward God and the progress of political and social mankind toward peace on earth; it is a compassionate, although moral, evaluation of human nature and a mystic vision of the Absolute toward which it strives. |

| | Dante's Inferno Summary & Essays - Dante Alighieri |
| | The Divine Comedy was not titled as such by Dante; his title for the work was simply Commedia or Comedy. | | | The Divine Comedy is made up of three parts, corresponding with Dante’s three journeys: Inferno, or “Hell”; Purgatorio, or “Purgatory”; and Paradiso, or “Paradise.” Each part consists of a prologue and approximately 33 cantos. | | | To Dante and his contemporaries, the term “comedy” meant a tale with a happy ending, not a funny story as the word has since come to mean. |

| | The Divine Comedy Summary |
| | Then, in union with the divine, Dante was left alone to behold the glory of God on his throne. | | | His comedy, rich as it was in multilayered medieval allegory, set fire to the then radically modern idea that literature - works meant primarily to be read rather than retold or enacted could be made both accessible and popular. | | | At last Dante was conducted to the ninth heaven (outerspace), where he received grace, and was permitted to gaze upon divinity and hear the angels' chorus. |

| | HammerArts: Divine Comedy |
| | The Divine Comedy is a set of poems describing the poet's journey through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven. | | | Dante (1265-1321) was a Florentine, and he wrote the Comedy while in political exile during the opening years of the fifteenth century, as a memorial to his exalted love Beatrice Portinari, whose death in 1290 had profoundly affected his life. | | | Perhaps the most gothic interpretation of the Comedy in terms of immediate appearance is that of Gustave Doré (1832-1883), who (contemporaneously with Rossetti) created a full cycle of woodblocks to illustrate a published edition of the work. |

| | The American "Divine Comedy" |
| | The American version of the soul's journey in the afterlife is decidedly more pessimistic than the original Divine Comedy, which merely began in Hell, but only as a necessary means of purgation en route towards Heaven. | | | Likewise, one might go through the tapping, or the bust, or the velvet and find veiled meanings within them, some possibly related to his own life (i.e., the death of his young wife, or his own tendency towards broodishness), and others superceding his own life experience to exemplify the universal (i.e., death or love). | | | Or, wrapping all these together, The Raven may be viewed as a sort of American Divine Comedy, much like its prose counterpart, Young Goodman Brown by Nathaniel Hawthorne. |
