Reviews
"The prose translation, carefully arranged on the page to correspond to the format of the Italian verses, follows the original very closely, and is exceptionally successful in conveying the texture of Dante's poem. The introduction is valuable in its own right; the notes, many of them briefessays, promote the reader's active engagement in the quest for meaning, opening up the text with a treasure of "'formation and interpretation."--Sara Sturm-Maddox, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, "A joy to read. The Introduction offers a wealth of information on the poet's life and times, and the way these helped to shape Dante's poetic masterpiece. Durling's prose translation is trenchant, going straight to the heart of the Italian text on the facing page. In their notes, Durling andMartinez provide the reader with a wealth of essential explanations and critical insights, quite unparalleled in English. For generations to come, this will be the Dante student's 'bible'."--John A. Scott, Professor of Italian, School of European Languages, University of Western Australia, "This new edition of Inferno is distinctly user-friendly....Seriousstudents--in or out of the classroom--who...examine the original poem alongsidea readable and reliable prose translation will find this edition excellentlysuited to their needs."--The Christian Science Monitor, "'Long study and great love'...have conditioned Durling's and Martinez' new Inferno translation and commentary, with the splendid results that only sustained scholarly work and exceptional dedication can bring. The volume is not only impressive in content--an elegant, accurate, and highlyreadable prose rendering of Dante's verse, clear and concise notes, useful illustrative maps and figures, rich commentary on central issues, a bibliography thoughtfully put together from the best of Italian and American Dante criticism--it is also a materially beautiful book whose typography anddesign are a genuine artistic contribution."--Rebecca West, University of Chicago, "A joy to read.

Sinclair. The translation is carefully calculated to keep the reader abreast, step by step, with Dante's Italian; the annotation, distilled from vast reserves of scholarly andcommentative knowledge, succeeds simply and splendidly in elucidating the poem.

Synopsis
This first volume of Robert Durling's new translation of The Divine Comedy brings a new power and accuracy to the rendering of Dante's extraordinary vision of Hell, with all its terror, pathos, and humor. Remarkably true to both the letter and spirit of this central work of Western literature, Durling's is a prose translation (the first to appear in twenty-five years), and is thus free of the exigencies of meter and rhyme that hamper recent verse translations. As Durling notes, "the closely literal style is a conscious effort to convey in part the nature of Dante's Italian, notoriously craggy and difficult even for Italians." Rigorously accurate as to meaning, it is both clear and supple, while preserving to an unparalleled degree the order and emphases of Dante's complex syntax. The Durling-Martinez Inferno is also user-friendly. The Italian text, newly edited, is printed on each verso page; the English mirrors it in such a way that readers can easily find themselves in relation to the original terza rima . Designed with the first-time reader of Dante in mind, the volume includes comprehensive notes and textual commentary by Martinez and Durling: both are life-long students of Dante and other medieval writers (their Purgatorio and Paradiso will appear next year). Their introduction is a small masterpiece of its kind in presenting lucidly and concisely the historical and conceptual background of the poem. Sixteen short essays are provided that offer new inquiry into such topics as the autobiographical nature of the poem, Dante's views on homosexuality, and the recurrent, problematic body analogy (Hell has a structure parallel to that of the human body). The extensive notes, containing much new material, explain the historical, literary, and doctrinal references, present what is known about the damned souls Dante meets --from the lovers who spend eternity in the whirlwind of their passion, to Count Ugolino, who perpetually gnaws at his enemy's skull--disentangle the vexed party politics of Guelfs and Ghibellines, illuminate difficult and disputed passages, and shed light on some of Dante's unresolved conflicts. Robert Turner's illustrations include detailed maps of Italy and several of its regions, clearly labeled diagrams of the cosmos and the structure of Hell, and eight line drawings illustrating objects and places mentioned in the poem. With its exceptionally high standard of typography and design, the Durling-Martinez Inferno offers readers a solid cornerstone for any home library. It will set the standard for years to come., This is a new prose translation of Dante's epic. A newly edited version of the Italian text will be on facing pages. This edition includes fully comprehensive notes with the latest in contemporary scholarship as well as 16 short essays on special subjects at the end of the book., This first volume of Robert Durling's new translation of The Divine Comedy brings a new power and accuracy to the rendering of Dante's extraordinary vision of Hell, with all its terror, pathos, and humor.
