Explanation:

The Divine Comedy is an epic poem written by the author Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) is a classic of world literature written during the Renaissance.  The protagonist of the poem is the poet himself Dante Alighieri who travels between three completely different instances: Hell, Purgatory and Paradise.

The poem is an allegorical narrative, that is, the author describes situations that should not be interpreted only by their literal meaning. Therefore, the character Dante, the pilgrim, may also have symbolic representation. The story can be a kind of dream (he says it was sleep, a nap that took him to the jungle). Scholars of Dante's work say that the Dante of history is characterized as an allusion to Aeneas and to the apostle Paul because they all took long journeys and found themselves lost and hopeless somewhere along the way.
