About this listen

In the podcast "Odyssey", our host Jesus takes us on an interpretative journey through Dante's 'Divine Comedy', particularly the Inferno. Jesus uses engaging explanations and vivid examples to bring the deepest meanings of Dante's work to life, highlighting the metaphysical undertones throughout the journey. He compares the dark forest in which Dante finds himself lost to the chaos and struggle of human life, using Dante's encounters with symbolic creatures to explore themes of political power, ambition, and greed. This exploration comes full circle with the introduction of Virgil, who is portrayed as a beacon of hope guiding Dante through his journey. Engaging and thought-provoking, the podcast leaves listeners musing on Dante's masterwork long after it concludes.Copyright Podcraftr Social Sciences
