Die berhmteste Jenseitsreise der Weltliteratur. Begleitet von Vergil, gelangt der Dichter durchs Hllentor zum eisigen Mittelpunkt der Erde und von dort zum paradiesischen Hhenflug mit der geliebten Beatrice. Auf dem Wege aber harren nahezu 600 Berhmtheiten aus Politik, Literatur und Mythologie auf Erlsung, erzhlen den Reisenden aus ihrem Leben - und wurden so fr die Nachwelt unsterblich. Dantes Commedia, entstanden zwischen 1307 und 1321, ist die erste groe Dichtung der italienischen Sprache und gilt bis heute als ihr Hauptwerk.
