The cast of characters is as colorful as before, although this time most of them are headed for salvation. The canto-by-canto commentary allows each contributor his or her individual voice and results in a deeper, richer awareness of Dante's timeless aspirations and achievements.Italian literatureItalian literature.851/.1Mandelbaum Allen1926-2011.1688806Oldcorn Anthony322649Ross Charles571003MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817618903321Lectura Dantis4108503UNINA
