Paradise - Dante Alighieri - Bog

""Paradise"" is the third and final part of the epic poem ""The Divine Comedy"" by Italian poet Dante Alighieri. In this section, Dante travels through the nine celestial spheres of Heaven, guided by his beloved Beatrice, and encounters various saints and angels. Each sphere represents a different virtue, such as faith, hope, and love, and Dante's journey ultimately leads him to the vision of God. Along the way, he explores complex theological concepts and philosophical ideas, weaving together allegory and symbolism to create a vivid and compelling vision of the afterlife. ""Paradise"" is considered one of the greatest works of Western literature and a masterpiece of Italian poetry.As the bough that bends its top at passing of the wind, and then lifts itself by its own virtue which raises it, so did I, in amazement, the while she was speaking; and then a desire to speak, wherewith I was burning, gave me again assurance, and I began, ""O Apple, that alone wast produced mature, O ancient Father, to whom every bride is daughter and daughter-in-law, devoutly as I can, I supplicate thee that thou speak to me; thou seest my wish, and in order to hear thee quickly, I do not tell it.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
