The Greatest Books You've Never Read: Dante's Inferno NEW!

Dante's Divine Comedy is one of the world's great books. After a brief overview of Dante's life and times, we will read and discuss part one, The Inferno, Dante's vision of the punishment and suffering of sinful souls after death. We will consider Dante's views of morality and the after-life, and how we think of these questions today.

Suggested Reading:
Dante, The Inferno, translation by John Ciardi (preferred, but other translations are okay.)
