Dante Alighieri's poetic masterpiece, the Divine Comedy, is a moving human drama, an unforgettable visionary journey through the infinite torment of Hell, up the arduous slopes of Purgatory, and on to the glorious realm of Paradise; the sphere of universal harmony and eternal salvation.

Melville Best Anderson was the first to translate the complete Divine Comedy to English in triple rime (1921); and this Heritage Press edition includes his translation, notes, and elucidations; an introduction by Arthur Livingston; and 32 drawings by William Blake.
