Dantesques: A Sonnet Companion To The Inferno is a book written by George Arthur Greene and published in 1903. The book is a collection of sonnets inspired by Dante Alighieri’s epic poem, The Divine Comedy, specifically the first part of the poem, The Inferno. The sonnets are written in the same style as Dante’s original work and are meant to be read alongside it, providing a companion piece to the classic text.The book is divided into three sections, each corresponding to one of the three main parts of The Divine Comedy. The first section, which is the focus of Dantesques, is The Inferno. The sonnets explore the themes and characters of Dante’s work, including the punishments of the damned, the role of Virgil as Dante’s guide, and the various circles of hell.Greene’s writing is lyrical and evocative, capturing the mood and atmosphere of Dante’s original work. The sonnets are written in iambic pentameter and follow the rhyme scheme of the Italian sonnet. The language is rich and vivid, bringing to life the vivid imagery of Dante’s vision of hell.Overall, Dantesques: A Sonnet Companion To The Inferno is a beautifully written and thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on one of the greatest works of literature in the Western canon. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Dante, The Divine Comedy, or poetry in general.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
