The Divine Comedy, Volume 3, Paradise by Dante Alighieri
"The Divine Comedy, Volume 3, Paradise" by Dante Alighieri is an allegorical poem written in the early 14th century. Guided by Beatrice, who symbolizes theology, Dante ascends through nine celestial spheres of Heaven toward the Empyrean, the dwelling place of God. In each sphere, he encounters blessed souls and explores the cardinal and theological virtues. The journey represents the soul's ultimate ascent to divine understanding, completing Dante's epic voyage through the afterlife.
