Undoubtedly, “pity and sympathy are based on an initial relationship of fellow feeling, or identification with the circumstances and feelings of another” (Walton, p.88). Dante uses his characters in Inferno to explore or conceptualize the pity concept. Based on the characters, he builds up unsettled moral standards…

Virgil and Dante are now entering the 8th circle of hell, fraud towards other people. The guard of this circle is the Greek god Janus. Janus is the guard because he had literally two faces.
