Inferno: The Comedy of Dante Alighieri, Canticle OneHackett Publishing Company, Incorporated, 2007 - 261 páginas "Tom Simone's translation is simply superb. Of all the translations with which I am familiar, this is the one that is the most faithful to what's there in the Italian: no frills, no poetic sallies, no choosing a word because it brings the line closer to iambic pentameter--just unadulterated Dante with good old Anglo-Saxon words and in highly readable prose." --Peter Kalkavage, St. John's University |
