however, important to note the significance of women and, in particular, the chosen historical figures the author uses to portray his view of women in general. Female figures are present throughout the three canticles of Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso, and their significant nature is not to be ignored. Although a large proportion of scholars would choose to analyse the character of Beatrice, Dante’s principle inspiration for the Divine Comedy as well as the work of Vita Nuova, when observing…

Breakthroughs in the way in which we understand the purpose of the amygdala come from identifying peculiarities in behaviour and linking them to areas of the brain where lesions/abnormalities are found. Such is the case when examining Patient S.M. and her diminished exhibition of fear (Adolphs, 1997 & Feinstein et al., 2011).

“Thus you may understand that love alone is the true seed of every merit in you, and of all acts for which you must atone” (Purgatorio, XVII.103-105). In Divina Commedia written by Dante Alighieri, love and merit are central themes to the progression of Dante’s journey.

Yet, at the same time, the souls in these places are receiving…
