Ok well I forgot to write the blog about what I am reading and what not so I will start with that. I am reading the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. I chose this book because I've heard a lot about it but have always forgotten to read. It seems really interesting, I love hearing about what people think Heaven or in this case Hell will be like. To be honest I haven't read a lot this week, between work and other family things there just is not enough time in a day! But what I have read, I have a feeling that its going to be a really good and almost depressing book. I will read more this up coming week and let you know what u think! :) But until then if you don't know much about Dante, I have found a webpage with great information!
So is this what that movie and video game are based on? Dante's Inferno? If so, I think i might be interested in reading this too. Its funny, because in Living On Your Own class today, someone in the movie we are watching made a reference to The Divine Comedy.
ReplyDeleteInteresting point about being curious on other's ideas of heaven and hell. So true! I suppose most are and that's why books like The Seven People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom are so popular. Great hyperlink, too. I am anxious to see what you think of this piece. We will read some pieces of it together in class later this semester, so you'll be ahead on that assignment. Keep reading and blogging!
ReplyDeleteI think that its good that you are interested in reading this peace, seems interesting to read! Also loving the background you have going on! :)
