"The Divine Comedy" is the greatest monument of world literature, presenting a synthesis of the entire European medieval culture and bold innovative ideas. In search of the true path, Dante embarks on a grand journey through the darkness and sorrow of Hell, the fullness of grief and hope of Purgatory to the dazzling Paradise. Exploring in the afterlife the fate of sinful, faltering, and righteous souls, Dante gradually gains strength for spiritual rebirth and finds answers to the eternal questions of existence.
In the current edition, the original text of the entire "Divine Comedy" is presented with a parallel translation by D. E. Min, awarded the Pushkin Prize, and is accompanied by expressive illustrations framed by the outstanding graphic artist Gustave Doré. The cover features a fragment of the painting "Mystical Nativity" by the Italian Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli.
For reading convenience, each line in Russian is placed opposite the corresponding line in Italian. The parallel text allows for easy comparison of the original with the translation, to pay attention to the difficulties encountered by the translator, and to note the most accurately translated fragments.
Hardcover with gold embossing, richly decorated text with a light stylization of a medieval book, illustrations, a golden ribbon bookmark add elegance to the book. It can be purchased not only for one's collection but also as a gift for dear and close people.
