Dante for fun. The Purgatoryfederighi editori, 2007 - 62 pages Dopo aver attraversato la voragine infernale, Dante, accompagnato da Virgilio, si appresta a scalare la montagna del Purgatorio. In questo regno, diviso in sette cornici, corrispondenti ai sette vizi capitali, gli spiriti devono espiare le proprie colpe di poter ascendere al Paradiso. La cantica si apre con l'Antipurgatorio e termina con l'arrivo in Paradiso ed il tanto atteso incontro di Dante con l'amata Beatrice. |
