We hardly keep up with reading all the updates dedicated to our career, business, vocation, and livelihood, pushed daily by (email) subscriptions.
A brief change of scenery can be welcomed.
We are inviting you to take a break.
This year is Dante’s Year.
Just enjoy some articles and, if you afford the time, browse some of Dante’s works.
“By far, Dante’s most pervasive influence on culture and pop culture is his vision of the underworld, which has conditioned us to talk of the nine – or sometimes, inaccurately, the seven – circles of hell and the tailor-made punishments within them. In the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, for example, it is said that ‘the deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers,’ which was an invention of Dante’s imagination.”
