Ep. 051: Dante's Hell (Inferno)
Manage episode 320004776 series 3261168
Dante Alighieri gained a lot of attention last year as we marked 700 years since his death. In the middle ages, the Italian poet composed his Divine Comedy, an epic poem depicting an imagined journey through the three spiritual realms of Catholic teaching. Accordingly, his Inferno depicts Hell, the place where the souls of the condemned are placed in eternal punishment. This week, The Good Fight questions what misconceptions might arise from Dante's work and examine the Biblical theology of Hell.
