Divine Comedy, Cary's Translation, Purgatory by Dante Alighieri
"Divine Comedy, Cary's Translation, Purgatory" by Dante Alighieri is the second part of the Divine Comedy, written in the early 14th century. This allegorical poem follows Dante's climb up Mount Purgatory, guided by the Roman poet Virgil and later by Beatrice. Through seven terraces of suffering and spiritual growth, Dante explores the nature of sin, virtue, and redemption. The journey examines how all sins stem from perverted, deficient, or excessive love, portraying
the penitent Christian soul's path toward purification and Paradise. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
