Beginning with Dante's liberation from Hell, this work relates his ascent to the Mount of Purgatory. Dante observes the sinners who are waiting for their release into Paradise, and through these encounters he is himself transformed into a better man. The second part of an epic poem, it is a Christian allegory of sin, redemption and enlightenment.
