Book Description:
The crowning glory of Dante's immortal The Divine Comedy, The Paradiso conveys a supreme poet's dramatic vision of the workings of the universe and of man's place within the eternal order. Unequaled in the vivid power of its language, this magnificent achievement has been superbly rendered into English by the American poet John Ciardi. "Dante cannot speak in English, perhaps; but Ciardi has given us the next best thing - a credible, passionate persona of the poet, stripped of the customary gauds of rhetoric and false decoration, strong and noble in utterance."-Dudley Fitts
