Reviews
"A lively sprint through Dante's celebrated poem and its stupendous afterlife. The authors roll out their account as a mystery story of their own. It's a terrific tale from start to finish about how Dante's seven-hundred-year-old personal epic still grips twenty-first-century readers, writers, and creative luminaries." - William J. Kennedy, Professor of Comparative Literature, Cornell University "Deborah and Mark Parker provide a lively, witty, and intelligent guide to Dante's own masterwork, the Inferno , and then to 'Dante after Dante', as it were. They take readers on an interesting tour of how Dante used as a springboard for creative re-use, culminating in Dan Brown, who has captured the imagination of many readers and, importantly, led them back to Dante's medieval masterpiece." -Christopher S. Celenza, Director, American Academy in Rome, and Charles Homer Haskins Professor, Johns Hopkins University "Deborah and Mark Parker bridge the gap between hard core Dante scholars and the pop cultural world. From Dante to Dan Brown is a cultural leap as well as a leap through time and across the planet. Deborah and Mark Parker have made the leap less daunting and treacherous. - Sandow Birk, artist, film maker, and author of the illustrated Dante's Inferno "In a prose that is arresting because it is so lucid and direct, Deborah and Mark Parker have written a book that explains the magic of Dante's famous Inferno . Their discussions of Beetlejuice , Se7en , and Sandow Birk's illustrated Inferno are especially fine, as is their assessment of Dan Brown's recent best-seller, which climaxes their book. What they write of Dante might well be adapted and applied to their own book: ,Part of Dante's genius lies in his extraordinary ability to reduce a complex situation to gestures that are still understandable today.'" - Jerome McGann, The John Stewart Bryan University Professor, University of Virginia, Deborah and Mark Parker provide a lively, witty, and intelligent guide to Dante's own masterwork, the Inferno , and then to 'Dante after Dante,' as it were.

Synopsis
Using Dan Brown's book as a jumping off point, Inferno Revealed will provide readers of Brown's Inferno with an engaging introduction to Dante and his world. Much like the books on Leonardo that followed the release of the Da Vinci Code , this book will provide readers with more information about the ever-intriguing Dante. Specifically, Inferno Revealed explores how Dante made himself the protagonist of The Divine Comedy, something no other epic poet has done, amovefor which theramifications have not yet been fully explored. The mysteries and puzzles that arise from Dante's choice to personalize the epic, along with hisaffinityforhis local surroundingsand how thataffects his depiction of the places, Church, and politics in the poem are considered - along withwhat thisreveals about Brown's own usage of the work. Theauthors will focus on and analyze how Dan Brown has repurposed Inferno in his newest book - noting what he gets right and what errors are made when he does not. Of course, Dan Brown is not the first author to base his work on Dante. The Comedy has elicited many adaptations from major canonical writers such as Milton and Keats to popular adaptationslike David Fincher's Se7en and Tim Burton's Beetlejuice - all of which will be discussed in detail within Inferno Revealed ., An introduction to and exploration of Dante's world that provides context for understanding Dan Brown's upcoming book, Inferno, Using Dan Brown's book as a jumping off point, Inferno Revealed will provide readers of Brown's Inferno with an engaging introduction to Dante and his world.
