The HellThe Hell written by Dante Alighieri is an epic about his journey through Hell. In Dante's representation of Hell there are nine circles containing different sins, each with a more severe punishment than the last. In these increasingly terrifying scenarios, he encounters many ironic punishments and often argues with a person in the midst of torment. Dante is accompanied by a guide (Virgil) who acts as a mentor. The two travel through hell in hopes of reaching Heaven. As Dante walks as a spectator through the terrors of hell, he himself begins to commit sins, although the sinners he encounters are still admitted to heaven. Although Dante occasionally sins during his journey, he usually meets sinners with compassion and pity, but Virgil meets them with the opposite and views them with disgust. Although they can treat them as they wish, the one who causes them the most torment is God, whom Dante himself sometimes considers cruel. These inconsistencies and disguises call into question the morality of the Catholic sentencing system. Dante eventually makes it out of hell and into heaven, but he really didn't deserve it since he had committed multiple sins along the way. Dante did this to sinners themselves, but considering how strictly they are held for everyone else, it would presumably work the same for him. An occasion of his sinful behavior is while he is traveling through the Styx, the circle of the wrathful, where he meets one of the sinners (an old enemy) and says: "Master, it would suit my whim to see the wretch swept away in the swill before let's leave” (81). While Dante ironically, but ferociously, lashes out, being angry himself a point in the brain specific to spirituality. Without believing in the Catholic God, everyone who came before religion and Catholicism would have been thrown into these pots with burning stoves. No, in the twenty-first century, many moral values have changed and are remained the same, even some of the Catholics' views on the sins condemned in Hell have been changed and are now permitted Throughout the epic, the morality of the dark age condemnation system is subdued and examined through character analysis. . After reading The Inferno, evident prejudices and contortions emerge in the determination of good and evil, sinners and the righteous. The views of the poem and this essay were not at all an attempt to castigate Catholicism, but to question the ideas and morality of the Catholic church in the fourteenth century..
