Inferno by Jonathan Hickman Book Description : The reader will come away with an understanding of what Dante's poem can reveal about these characters and the mystifying city of Florence-and perhaps, where the rest of the book may lead. The connection between the Prologue's narrator, aptly named "the Shade," and Langdon is exposed, and the characters are even further illuminated by their relationship to Dante's poem. This teaser explores the Prologue and first chapter of Inferno and details to the reader what important facts-and mistakes-they should be aware of while beginning Brown's book. In this sneak peek into Inferno, Dan Brown's brand new novel, Interpreting Dan Brown's Inferno will provide readers with an engaging introduction to Dante and his world-and the ways in which Brown has repurposed Dante's famous work in his newest Robert Langdon novel. Interpreting Dan Brown s Inferno Book Description : The Comedy has elicited many adaptations from major canonical writers such as Milton and Keats to popular adaptations like David Fincher's Se7en and Tim Burton's Beetlejuice- all of which will be discussed in detail within Inferno Revealed. Of course, Dan Brown is not the first author to base his work on Dante. The authors 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. The mysteries and puzzles that arise from Dante's choice to personalize the epic, along with his affinity for his local surroundings and how that affects his depiction of the places, Church, and politics in the poem are considered-along with what this reveals about Brown's own usage of the work. Specifically, Inferno Revealed explores how Dante made himself the protagonist of The Divine Comedy, something no other epic poet has done, a move for which the ramifications have not yet been fully explored. 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. 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.
