Mark Musa's translation is straightforward, easy to follow, and in friendly blank verse. I only wish I had purchased the individual Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso, because apparently they have many more notes. The notes are somewhat sporadic in this version (being portable, after all) and you get the feeling they were selected at random - some persons, referred-to events, and concepts are explained at length and others are not at all. But maybe I just don't know better. A personal four stars, but it's a five-star translation in a handy little package and I can't really fault it for lacking footnotes. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

'Midway along the journey of life I woke to find myself in a dark wood. . .'As a philosopher, he wedded classical methods of inquiry to a Christian faith. As an autobiographer, he looked unsparingly at his own failures to depict universal moral struggles. As a visionary, he dared draw maps of Hell, with Purgatory and Paradise, and populate all three realms with recognizable human beings. As a passionate lover, he became a poet of bereavement and renunciation. As all of these things, Dante Alighieri paved the way for modern literature, while creating verse and prose that remain unparalleled for formal elegance, intellectual depth, and emotional grandeur. The Portable Dantecaptures the scope and fire of Dante's genius as thoroughly as any single volume can. It contains complete verse translations of Dante's two masterworks, The Divine Comedyand La Vita Nuova; plus a bibliography, notes, and an introduction by the eminent scholar and translator Mark Musa.

Also, this really helped me get through the book: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_Comedy
I printed it out and kept it near me when I was reading the book to double-check I understood what was going on =) ( )
