Synopsis "the inferno of dante,a new verse translation (in English)"

This widely praised version of Dante's masterpiece, which won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award of the Academy of American Poets, is more idiomatic and approachable than its many predecessors. Former U.S. Poet Laureate Pinsky employs slant rhyme and near rhyme to preserve Dante's terza rima form without distorting the flow of English idiom. The result is a clear and vigorous translation that is also unique, student-friendly, and faithful to the original: A brilliant success, as Bernard Knox wrote in The New York Review of Books.

Es considerada la obra maestra de la literatura italiana y una de las cumbres de la literatura universal. En italiano es conocido como "el Poeta Supremo". A Dante también se le llama el "Padre del idioma" italiano. Participó activamente en las luchas políticas de su tiempo, por lo cual fue desterrado de su ciudad natal. Fue un activo defensor de la unidad italiana. Escribió varios tratados en latín sobre literatura, política y filosofía.
