Description

This Norton Critical Edition of Dante€s masterpiece is based on Michael Palma€s verse translation, which is acclaimed for its elegant rendering of Dante€s triple-rhyme scheme into contemporary English.

Richard Wilbur praises Palma€s translation as €œaccurate as to sense, fully rhymed, and easy, as a rule, in its movement through the tercets. Readers will find it admirably clear and readable.€ The text is accompanied by detailed explanatory annotations. Also included in this edition are an illuminating introduction by Giuseppe Mazzotta, a Translator€s Note, The Plan of Dante€s Hell, and six maps and illustrations. €œCriticism€ provides twelve interpretations by, among others, John Freccero, Robert M. Durling, Alison Cornish, Teodolinda Barolini, Giuseppe Mazzotta, and Robert Hollander. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
