Dante Alighieri
Publisher Marketing: El Purgatorio es el segundo de los tres cantos de La Divina Comedia de Dante Alighieri. Lo antecede el del Infierno y le sigue el del Paraiso. El Purgatorio de Dante se divide en Antepurgatorio, Purgatorio y Paraiso terrestre. La estructura moral del Purgatorio sigue la clasificacion tomistica de los vicios del amor mal dirigido, y no hace referencia a culpas especificas. Se divide en siete giros, en las cuales se expian los siete pecados capitales: soberbia, envidia, ira, pereza, avaricia, gula, lujuria. Al pie de la montana se encuentra el Antepurgatorio, y en la cima el Paraiso terrestre. Su estructura es especular a la del Infierno, pues si aquel es un abismo este es una montana, y el orden de las penas sufre un giro de ciento ochenta grados: el camino de Dante va del pecado mas grave al mas leve (que es la lujuria, o amor que se excede en la medida). Cada giro tiene un custodio angelico, y precisamente los angeles de la humildad, de la misericordia, de la mansedumbre, de la solicitud, de la justicia, de la abstinencia y de la castidad; en cada giro, ademas, los que expian las culpas tienen ante si ejemplos del vicio castigado y de la virtud opuesta. Contributor Bio: Alighieri, Dante Dante Alighieri was an Italian poet of the Middle Ages, best known for his masterpiece, the epic Divine Comedy, considered to be one of the greatest poetic works in literature. A native of Florence, Dante was deeply involved in his city-state's politics and had political, as well as poetic, ambitions. He was exiled from Florence in 1301 for backing the losing faction in a dispute over the pope's influence, and never saw Florence again. While in exile, Dante wrote the Comedy, the tale of the poet's pilgrimage through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. To reach the largest possible audience for the work, Dante devised a version of Italian based largely on his own Tuscan dialect and incorporating Latin and parts of other regional dialects. In so doing, he demonstrated the vernacular's fitness for artistic expression, and earned the title "Father of the Italian language."Dante died in Ravenna in 1321, and his body remains there despite the fact that Florence erected a tomb for him in 1829.
