About
The Divine Comedy is the master work of Dante Alighieri, one of the greatest poets of all time. Composed, according to critics, between 1304 and 1321, this poem is one of the most studied in the world, and it is a milestone in the development of the Italian language and cultural tradition of the country.
The three parts composing the poem – Inferno, Purgatory and Paradise – have become, today, a source of inspiration for a large group sponsored by Largo Baracche Project (by Mariano Ipri, Giuseppe Ruffo and Pietro Tatafiore) entitled, precisely, “DIVINA COMMEDIA”. Long story that explores in depth the human soul, the hidden depths of his character, his weaknesses, his virtues, the Divine Comedy presents a multifaceted portrait not only of men but of the same society in which they lived.
The characters are the stimulus for creative artists from Largo Baracche, inspired to offer a personal interpretation of the poem.
