am I the only one who is annoyed by the fact thet Dante faints all the times? this is the second time in only 5 cantos ( and it isn't the last one). don't get me wrong, I love the divine comedy, but he's always fainting at the end of the cantos!
He had a wild vision he may of seen these things and some matt be true but the bible says that hell is a place of punishment not reunion with friends lol
I love this cant, the vision of Paolo and Francesca, togheter down in the eternal punishment, crying of love one for other, a heart that kidnappes love, breaking it, making it so respectfull, admirable, yes Dante recluded them in hell, but has made an immortal image of them, keeping theyr love immortal, because we will speak of them forever, Erotism, love, passion and Dante falled down the the ground, to making him less important than love "E corpo cadde come corpo morto cade" 700 Years ago.
I doubt that they would pass up a chance at such an obvious boss for the game as Medusa. Likely you will have to beat her in order to enter Dis.
While on the subject of the game, while some say it doesnt really have anything to do with the poem, just borrows the imagery, i disagree. The poem is to a large degree just a description, and it seems the description is still there in the game, just added the dimension of a more litteral outer and inner journey for dante. 3 weeks and we find out.
okay here it goes... The Devil and "his" angels are really all God's angels since he created them all. However, the devil renounced God and managed to convince a number of angels to side with him, thus they became his followers much like Bush and Obama. Having turned their will away from the goodness of God they became hideous as thier thoughts of treachery.
Circle 6, the City of Dis. Easy way to remember is that the Furies threaten to bring Medusa to torment the poets because they are initially denied entry to the city.
I suppose she's not actually in the circle, but outside the gates. I haven't read up much about the video game, so I'm not sure how accurate it is. It looks interesting, though.
@alexander92648 I had a friend at a church that I went to who said to me dead serious, that "if there isnt going to be any beer in heaven, then I don't want to go. I was LMAO.
fantastic!!! i studied teh "canto V" by heart but in italian of course.. i study languages at school.. dante in the original language is better, but i love this canto in english!!;)
Thanks for putting these up, much appreciated!

Che ricordarsi del tempo felice
Nella miseria."
There is no greater sorrow than to recall in misery a time when one was happy.

the road to hell, may be paved by good intentions, but it is walked, by hard, dry old men in robes.
