Dante Alighieri



Dante was a famous Italian poet, theologian, and philosopher. His Divine Comedy, originally called Commedia by the author, is often considered the greatest literary work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. Dante is also called the "Father of the Italian language".

Every Italian knows of him!!! I would equate him to our George Washington in fame and leadership. Dante is to Italy as George Washington is to the United States
