An allegorical poem, The Divine Comedy is the story of the conversion of the soul of the poet as much as it is the advent of a universal poetic creation combining ancient and medieval traditions with sacred texts. Henri Longnon illuminates the political dimension of a work that is also rooted in the debates of its time.
