Stories of Dante

The Divine Comedy is considered the most wonderful poem in Italian poetry, ancient and modern. It has been translated and is still being translated into the most important languages ​​of the world. The book, translated by Professor Amin Hassan, is a comprehensive summary of this eternal gem. Its author, "Wutherbaj," included many stories of hell, purgatory, and paradise that express the poet's philosophy and accurately portray life in his time.
The book is characterized by clarity of style and brilliant presentation. Despite its small size, it does not deprive us of knowing Dante's main ideas, which are summed up in the fact that the Italian poet takes himself as a symbol of man. You see him wandering into the "Valley of Life," wandering on his face, thinking about the matters of his world, and marveling. From his coming to this world, and trying to get out of it, then he realizes that he will not escape this terrifying valley, unless he climbs the shining mountain until he reaches final happiness. After that, it becomes clear that the path to it is fraught with dangers, and that walking on it requires strenuous effort and violent resistance to all kinds of temptation. Dante had to have good virtues, abandon hateful vices, and master the mind in order to achieve maximum happiness for himself. Therefore, he took Virgil as a guide to accompany him on his journey to Hell, because he considered him a symbol of wisdom and knowledge.
