- The Divine Comedy () is an epic poem written by Dante Alighieri between c. 1308 and his death in 1321. It is widely considered the preeminent work of Italian literature, and is seen as one of the greatest works of world literature.

It helped establish the Tuscan dialect, in which it is written, as the standardized Italian language. It is divided into three parts: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso.
- First thing you must know about Hell is that it actually ain't that bad. There's some famous ass mother-fuckers in that shithole. The term "Divine Comedy" comes from those scenes in Hell where people are being tortured in "quite comedic ways," according to the author. This included burning, whipping the burns, and then giving them a purple-nurple. It was only intended for gods such as Odin, Thor, Hades, Zeus, Anu, Rudra, Bob, Mitra, etc. But people discovered it and thought that it was actually pretty good. Boy, were they wrong.

- First thing you must know about Hell is that it actually ain't that bad. There's some famous ass mother-fuckers in that shithole. The term "Divine Comedy" comes from those scenes in Hell where people are being tortured in "quite comedic ways," according to the author. This included burning, whipping the burns, and then giving them a purple-nurple. It was only intended for gods such as Odin, Thor, Hades, Zeus, Anu, Rudra, Bob, Mitra, etc. But people discovered it and thought that it was actually pretty good. Boy, were they wrong. The book starts off with Dante wandering drunk through the forest. He looks up to see a star in the sky, which he gives symbolic meaning because he is "deep," but then suddenly is chased further into the woods by a lion and a she-wolf driving a Jaguar, running from them like a coward. Then after a long hour of running he bumps into the ghost of the poet Virgil head first. After sitting through Dante's stunned display of fanboyism, Virgil tells him that Beatrice wants him to come to Heaven, conveniently forgetting to note that the only way winds through Hell until Dante has agreed to follow his idol anywhere. Because God is going to end the world anyway, why not make the trip ahead of time? Dante agrees, and Virgil takes him through the Gate to Hell which warns lost souls and tourists such as Dante to "Get Insurance Now While You Can." Beyond the gate, the two poets struggle to make their way through the vast crowd of souls waiting to be admitted into the inferno, and as Dante frantically asks souls for directions, the overwhelming number of people in Hell makes his head spin. Next thing he knows, he is waking up in the First Circle of Hell: Limbo. This is where the well-meaning Conservatives go, and now have to live with the fact that they lived lives of reason, which is wrong. Virgil, one of the most well-meaning of all, shows Dante his house, at which Dante withholds laughter, unsuccessfully; and they then leave for The second circle of Hell. In this circle, lustful people are blown around over a ditch of McDonald's French Fires. Dante talks to Francesca, who complains that she was sent to her fate because she and her boyfriend, Guido, read the Kama Sutra. Now they are forced to fuck for eternity. Dante and Virgil then go on to the Third Circle of Hell, where the Gluttonous have to eat so much that they get eternal heartburn and are guarded by the Cerberus from Infocom's text parody of Zork 2, since Fluffy from Harry Potter was too prissy to do the job otherwise. Dante and Virgil stop to eat lunch, discussing the fact that they are so much better than these people until they are chased into the Fourth Circle by the vile dog, barely escaping with sandwiches intact. Here, greedy and cheap people push weights around and yell insults at each other. Not much else happens here other than meeting Scrooge Mic Duck suffering serious brusses trying to dive in his cash pool. So they go on to Circle 5, more commonly known in Hell as IMMORTAL KOMBAT (with a K), where the wrathful beat each other up while stepping on the sullen, who are submerged in water. Dante tries both and says he likes beating the crap out of people more. After crossing "The Great Wall of Dis", they arrive at the 6th Circle of Heretics. Every person who believed in God yet also thought gays could get married goes here. Dante laughs at a political opponent named Guido who is stuck in a burning coffin like a Dracula deep fry. They discuss the fact that Italy is in a mess and that the only hope for it will come if people get rid of the whole "Church/State Separation" idea. Then the two poets progress to the 7th circle, which houses the violent, in which they kick trees and insult gays, causing the Poets to cry because they feel so sorry for the gays. They are also able to tour two unlock able circles within the seventh, which Virgil reveals using cheat codes he learned from his date in an online chat room. After that, Dante and Virgil ride a creature called a Geryon, who introduces himself as Guido, to the Eighth Circle of the Dishonest; on the way down into the grue-filled darkness, Virgil takes care to warn Dante that of all of the circles of Hell they have been to so far, this one will be the worst. Dante had no idea. It turns out that the Eighth Circle was falsely advertised as a single one when it really consisted of eight of its own circles, all full of disease, fire, and since it is rather dark near the center of the earth, grues. While Dante cowers under the bridge between the fifth and sixth Bolgia, Virgil coolly draws a light cannon and manages to persuade a few of the grues to lead them nearly halfway through before they decide the live one would make a better meal. Dante is saved once again by his trusty guide, who leads him down into the final circle, which even grues fear. The deepest circle of Hell, number nine, is reserved for traitors and mutineers. Here, the souls are frozen into a giant lake of ice, which our heroes have to skate across to escape. Dante, horridly uncoordinated, kicks the spirit of a pirate named Guido in the head. And last but not least, in the center lies Satan: Lucifer, the Beast, Darth Guido, the Devil himself! Fortunately, he, too is frozen as punishment for his rebellion against God. Satan is munching on Judas, Stalin, Hitler, and Nietzsche, and can't really talk to them because he has to chew on these people, even though he has three mouths. Crawling over the Devel's back, they had no idea that emperor Nero was stuck up Lucifer's putrid crack under the ice. Virgil then leads Dante to the other side of the Earth by tying the laces of their skates together so they can climb down into the Mines of Moria. It's a little known fact that Dante was the first person to think the earth was round, which almost got him sent to the Eighth Circle.
- The Divine Comedy () is an epic poem written by Dante Alighieri between c. 1308 and his death in 1321. It is widely considered the preeminent work of Italian literature, and is seen as one of the greatest works of world literature. The poem's imaginative and allegorical vision of the afterlife is a culmination of the medieval world-view as it had developed in the Western Church. It helped establish the Tuscan dialect, in which it is written, as the standardized Italian language. It is divided into three parts: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. On the surface, the poem describes Dante's travels through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven; but at a deeper level, it represents allegorically the soul's journey towards God. At this deeper level, Dante draws on medieval Christian theology and philosophy, especially Thomistic philosophy and the Summa Theologica of Thomas Aquinas. Consequently, the Divine Comedy has been called "the Summa in verse". The work was originally simply titled Comedìa and was later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio. The first printed edition to add the word divine to the title was that of the Venetian humanist Lodovico Dolce, published in 1555 by Gabriele Giolito de' Ferrari.
