This book provides a recipe for healthy moral and personal transformation. Belliotti takes seriously Dante deepest yearnings: to guide human well-being; to elevate social and political communities; to remedy the poisons spewed by the seven capital vices; and to celebrate the connections between human self-interest, virtuous living, and spiritual salvation. By closely examining and analyzing five of Dante more vivid characters in hellâ€”Piero della Vigna, Brunetto Latini, Farinata degli Uberti, Cavalcante deâ€™ Cavalcanti, and Guido da Montefeltroâ€”and extracting the moral lessons Dante intends them to convey, and by conceptually analyzing envy, arrogance, pride, and human flourishing, the author challenges readers to interrogate and refine their modes of living.
