2.1. Dante, The Divine Comedy.
Composed in the early fourteenth century, Dante’s Divine Comedy is a trilogy of poems charting the poet’s journey from hell (Inferno) through Purgatory (Purgatorio) to heaven (Paradiso), guided by his fellow poet, Virgil. Featuring lakes of filth and farting demons, it’s much more fun than its theological subject might suggest, and it influenced a whole raft of later poets, especially T. S.

It’s even been called the ‘fifth Gospel’, so clearly and effectively does Dante detail the medieval view of Christianity.
