The narrative poem explores Dante's journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise, reflecting the medieval worldview and the soul's quest for God. Influenced by Christian theology and philosophy, particularly the works of Thomas Aquinas, it features Virgil as a symbol of human reason and Beatrice as divine knowledge.
