Description: 1870 The Vision of Dante Alighieri HELL Purgatory Paradise DIVINE COMEDY Cary “The Vision; or, Hell, Purgatory, & Paradise of Dante Alighieri,” translated by Rev. Henry Francis Cary, is the English version of Dante’s “The Divine Comedy.” This epic poem explores the soul’s journey to God through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, guided by the figures of Virgil, Beatrice, and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, representing reason, divine grace, and mysticism, respectively. Originally written in Tuscan dialect, which shaped modern Italian, the three-part poem combines allegory with realism. Cary’s translation captures the essence of Dante’s narrative that intertwines spiritual redemption with literary innovation. Published in New York by Hurst and Co., this rare, scarcely printed 19th-century edition of Dante’s iconic work is enriched by Cary’s scholarly commentary, a chronology of Dante’s life, and additional notes. Beautifully bound in decorative blue cloth, it is illustrated with 24 stunning engraved plates. Item number: #41584Price: $499 ALIGHIERI, Dante; CARY, Rev. Henry Francis (Transl.)
