"Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) maintained that translation destroys the harmony of poetry. Yet his Commedia has been translated into English time and again over the last two-and-a-bit centuries. At last count, 129 different translators have published at least one canticle of the Italian masterwork since the first in 1782, and countless more have translated individuals cantos. Among them there are some of the finest poets in the English language, including Robert Lowell and the Irish Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney. Smith and Sonzogni have assembled and annotated two complete translations of Dante's most popular canticle, Inferno: 68 cantos each translated by a different translator. To Hell and Back is a celebration of the art and craft of poetry translation; of the lexical palettes and syntactical tempos of the English language; and, of course, of the genius of one of the greatest poets of all times" -- Canto XXXIII Canto XXXII ; Canto XXXI ; Canto XXX ; Canto XXIX ; Canto XXVIII ; Canto XXVII ; Canto XXVI ; Canto XXV ; Canto XXIV ; Canto XXIII ; Canto XXII ; Canto XXI ; Canto XX ; Canto XIX ; Canto XVIII ; Canto XVII ; Canto XVI ; Canto XV ; Canto XIV ; Canto XIII ; Canto XII ; Canto XI ; Canto X ; Canto IX ; Canto VIII ; Canto VII ; Canto VI ; Canto V ; Canto IV ; Canto III ; Canto II ; Canto I ; Canto I To Hell and Back; Title page; LCC data; Dedication page; Table of contents; Acknowledgements; Dante's Inferno in English Translation: A Hell of a Cookbook; Canto I ; Canto II ; Canto III ; Canto IV ; Canto V ; Canto VI ; Canto VII ; Canto VIII ; Canto IX ; Canto X ; Canto XI ; Canto XII ; Canto XIII ; Canto XIV ; Canto XV ; Canto XVI ; Canto XVII ; Canto XVIII ; Canto XIX ; Canto XX ; Canto XXI ; Canto XXII ; Canto XXIII ; Canto XXIV ; Canto XXV ; Canto XXVI ; Canto XXVII ; Canto XXVIII ; Canto XXIX ; Canto XXX ; Canto XXXI ; Canto XXXII ; Canto XXXIII ; Canto XXXIV ; Canto XXXIV
