Islam and the Divine Comedy is a scholarly work by Miguel Asin that explores the relationship between Islam and the famous Italian poem, The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. Asin delves into the historical and cultural context of both Islam and the poem, examining how they intersect and influence each other. He analyzes the portrayal of Islam and Muslims in The Divine Comedy and how it reflects the attitudes and prejudices of Dante's time. Asin also explores the Islamic concept of the afterlife and compares it to Dante's vision of hell, purgatory, and paradise. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of literature, religious studies, and cultural studies who are interested in the intersection of Islam and Western literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
