Features: Today, what kind of person is someone with a secondary education, someone with average knowledge, someone with average sensitivity, who knows nothing of Dante's glory? Only a few understand the greatness of Dante. Dante was despised in his temporary earthly life and forgotten in his contemporary journey toward eternity. Jesus, as a human being, was just a fleeting black shadow in the white dust of the road; Dante's life was the same. The following groups are recommended to read this book: readers who enjoy Italian culture, researchers of the Renaissance, literary scholars or aspiring "writers," readers who appreciate poetry in biographies, and those with a touch of melancholy and heroism.
