Dante__Sin_And_Salvation

Dante: Sin And Salvation The Inferno Dante’s opinion of sin and sinners changes as the book Dante’s Inferno moves forward because this is Dante’s way to come to terms with God. In the beginning, Dante repeatedly expresses sorrow for the sinners but this sorrow eventually turns to resentment when he comes to terms with the deeds these people had done. He loses all respect for people who could have sinned in such blasphemous ways. He comes to term with his hatred for sinners in his book, as a way for him to get closer to his own salvation. The book begins with Dante becoming lost in a wood explained by the quotation, “Midway on our life\'s journey, I found myself In dark woods, the right road lost.” He begins this way in the book because in his life, he feels he strays from personal salvation. The book becomes a way for Dante to communicate his personal journey from being on the lost road to finding his path to Paradisio. One of the first instances that Dante conveys his sorrow for sinners, is the story of a woman named Franceska.
