Divine Comedy is a long poem written by the famous Italian poet Dante Alighieri. Through the dialogue with various famous figures in Hell, Purgatory and Paradise, the author reflects the achievements and some major problems in the field of medieval culture, from which we can glimpse the dawn of humanistic thought in the Renaissance. In this epic with more than 14,000 lines, Dante resolutely opposed obscurantism in the Middle Ages, expressed his persistent pursuit of truth, and had a far-reaching impact on the poetry creation of later generations in Europe.
Dante is the founder of modern Italian, the pioneer of European Renaissance, the greatest poet in Europe and one of the greatest writers in the world. He, Petrarch and Boccaccio are also called "the three giants of the Renaissance". In Italy, he is called the supreme poet and the father of Italian.
Dante alighieri's main works are as follows:

Freshness is Dante's work about his love for Beya Trizzi, including 365,438+0 lyric poems, which are connected into a whole by prose, and the origin and significance of each poem are explained.
2. "Feast"
Banquet is an encyclopedia. The author explained some of his poems and introduced all aspects of knowledge to readers as spiritual food, hence the name "feast". Banquet is limited by the times, and its discussion and reasoning are completely the way of scholasticism. However, it is the first academic work written in Italian proverbs, which sets a brilliant example for later scholars.
