Episode Synopsis
Dante: Divine Comedy & BeyondWhat can poetry teach us about philosophy? In this episode of Philosophy for Beginners, we turn to Dante Alighieri, the Florentine poet whose Divine Comedy is both a masterpiece of literature and a map of the human soul.Guided by reason and faith, Dante journeys through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, weaving together classical philosophy and Christian theology into a vision of justice, morality, and love. His work reveals how poetry can become philosophy in action — confronting vice, guiding virtue, and pointing toward the highest good.Join us as we follow Dante’s epic path and explore how his poetic imagination continues to illuminate timeless questions about human destiny and truth.
