Mandelbaum's translation, w/ facing original text & w/ illustrations by Barry Moser, has been praised by Robert Fagles as "exactly what we have waited for these years, a Dante w/ clarity, eloquence, terror, & profoundly moving depths," & by the late James Merrill as "lucid & strong . . . w/ rich orchestration . . . overall sweep & felicity . . . & countless free, brilliant, utterly Dantesque strokes." Charles Simic called the work "a miracle. A lesson in the art of translation & a model (an encyclopedia) for poets. The full range & richness of American English is displayed as perhaps never before." This collection of commentaries on the first part of the Comedy consists of commissioned essays, one for each canto, by a distinguished group of international scholar-critics. Readers of Dante will find this "Inferno" volume an enlightening & indispensable guide, the kind of lucid commentary that is truly adapted to the general reader as well as the student & scholar. * ABOUT THE GENERAL EDITORS: ANTHONY OLDCORN, Professor & Chair of Italian Studies at Brown University; CHARLES ROSS, Professor of English & Comparative Literature at Purdue University, here join w/ National Book Award winner ALLEN MANDELBAUM (W.R.
