The extensive notes that are included are wonderfully helpful. I supplement the translations with Giuseppe Mazzotta's 'Reading Dante' which is based on his course at Yale and is a rich exploration of the topics in The Comedy. Hope this is found to be helpful! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Italian and English Bi-glot *by R***T on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2018* Love the diglot (Italian literature aside English translation, which is NOT the literature but a careful rendering of it into another language). Map of hell near front assists the reader on Dante's and Virgil's excursus to the 9th level of hell. Wonderful foreward by Robert Hollander, who Dante at Princeton for 42 years. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding translation, scholarship and perfect as an e-book! *by D***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012* Jean and Robert Hollander's edition of Inferno is outstanding in every way. The translation is well-suited to the modern reader and seems to follow the Italian quite closely. The synopses preceding each canto are very useful and Hollander's analyses are exhaustive, interesting and complete with detailed references to earlier analytical works. The detail and extent of the analyses is remarkable. Hollander's commentary on the text is much more detailed than any other edition with which this reader is familiar, and the analyses are clear, interesting and well-referenced.For the serious student of Dante, this e-reader edition perhaps sets the standard for its ready access to the Italian and to the commentary. The default mode for each canto is the english text with links to the left for the corresponding original Italian. To the right are links to Hollander's analyses, line by line. Click on the link and the relevant Italian or annotation appears. Having read and studied the poem both with the Hollanders' hard-copy edition, the electronic version is far more user-friendly than scrambling back and forth through twenty or more pages to find an annotation and then return to the text, only to find another annotation in the next line or tercet.It might be of interest to also view the youtube videos of two Robert Hollander lectures at the University of Dallas. He is complete FULL of Dante. His enthusiasm and humor are infectious while transmitting a scholarly approach. Hollander says that Dante only offends two groups of people, non-believers and believers! This highlights one important aspect of this great poet, Dante's statement that Commedia is theological, not poetic allegory. This means that the narrative is claimed by Dante as to be literally true.This e-book is a gem and a bargain. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/104118723-the-inferno-the-divine-comedy-series-book-1](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/104118723-the-inferno-the-divine-comedy-series-book-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
