Dante Alighieri’s Inferno is the first and most celebrated canticle of the Divine Comedy (c. 1308–1320), the supreme work of Italian literature and one of the great poems of world civilisation. Led by Virgil, Dante descends through the nine circles of Hell, encountering sinners whose punishments mirror their earthly transgressions in unforgettable and often terrible detail.
