"The Divine Comedy by Dante, Illustrated, Paradise, Volume 3" by Dante Alighieri is a narrative poem begun around 1308 and completed around 1321. This third and final cantica follows Dante's ascent through Paradise, guided by Beatrice and Saint Bernard. The pilgrim encounters the nine celestial spheres as he journeys toward the Empyrean and the essence of God himself. Drawing on medieval Catholic theology, Paradise represents the soul's ultimate union with divine love,
completing Dante's allegorical journey from sin through penance to salvation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
