- Summary
- "This is a new edition of Dante's Inferno translated by Michael Palma, the first edition of which was published by Norton in 2002. It is part of a series of affordable paperback classics called The Norton Library, which is intended for use in college courses"--
- "Michael Palma's translation of the Inferno reproduces in contemporary English Dante's intricate triple-rhyming terza rima form, defying the conventional wisdom of literary commentators who long argued that it simply cannot be done. This spectacular feat of poetic artistry-- "accurate ... admirably clear, and readable" (Richard Wilbur)--"in capturing the sense, sound, and spirit of the original ... comes close to perfection" (X.J. Kennedy)."--Publisher's website.
