COMPLETE DANTEWORLDS, THE

Based on Raffa’s original research and his many years of teaching the poem to undergraduates, 'The Complete Danteworlds' charts a simultaneously geographical and textual journey, canto by canto, region by region, adhering closely to the path taken by Dante himself through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. This reference also features study questions, illustrations of the realms, and regional summaries. Interpreting Dante’s poem and his sources, Raffa fashions detailed entries on each character encountered as well as on many significant historical, religious, and cultural allusions.
