Summary:

Part One: The Inferno (1216-1308) explores the turbulent background of medieval Florence from 1216 to Dante's birth in 1265, and chronicles Dante's childhood, education and early career as a poet and politician -- culminating in his exile in 1302, and his decision to write The Divine Comedy -- plunging from there into the mysterious world of the poem itself, and Dante's descent into the inferno.
