Dante

Was an Italian poet who wrote a book called the Divine Comedy. Later on this book was split into three books: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Inferno was about him being lead through the seven Rings of Hell by the Roman poet Virgil. Purgatorio was about him being lead by Virgil again up the Mountain of Purgatory to Heaven. Paradiso is about Heaven. Dante wrote books on the world and its people because the categories in his books can almost always classify us.
