Dante

Dante

While many people perceive Dante's Inferno to be a religious novel that questions the ideas of heaven and hell, I believe that Dante's novel is a political one.  He grew up in Renaissance Florence.  At the time, it was a thriving, but not peaceful place.  There were conflicts between the Pope and the Holy Roman Emperor.  Both wanted to have the most power, and be supported by the people.  Two groups formed in Florence, the whites and the blacks.  Dante was a white, and he was exiled by the blacks.  They took his possessions, and told him that if he ever returned to Florence, he would be burned.  Dante never returned to Florence. He wandered from city to city, depending on noble patrons there. Between 1302 and 1304 some attempts were made by the exiled Whites to retrieve their position in Florence, but none of these succeeded and Dante contented himself with hoping for the appearance of a new powerful Holy Roman Emperor who would unite the country and banish strife.  Because of this, Dante's novel can be looked upon as political propaganda against the pope and the blacks.  Examples
