Dante Alighieri

Updated: Jul 24


Dante Alighieri

Poet (1265-1321)


Dante is the greatest name in Italian letters and among the giants of Western literature. His “Divine Comedy” remains the most important poem of the European Middle Ages and the most renowned literary work written in the Italian language. He is known for his use of the Italian language rather than Latin, making his poems accessible to the average reader. His depictions of Hell, Purgatory and Heaven in his “Divine Comedy” provided inspiration for Western art and literature.
