Our reading of Dante's Comedy is affected by what has accrued to
the work during the seven centuries since it was composed.
Translation and illustration are a form of reading. Dante has
entered the knowledge of English-speaking readers much colored by
the Romantic imagery and sentiment to be found in
nineteenth-century interpretations.
