Deze biografie is tevens een introductie op Dantes wereldberoemde ‘De goddelijke komedie’. ‘De goddelijke komedie’ is het beroemdste werk uit de westerse literatuur. Deze uitmuntende biografie van Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), dichter en filosoof, geschreven door de Amerikaanse hoogleraar R.W.B. Lewis, is een prachtige introductie daarop.
