Episode description
We're continuing on our journey, which has become a read-through of INFERNO. Having walked the first third (or so) of Dante's COMEDY passage by passage, even line by line, we're now experiencing this masterwork for what it truly is: a story.
Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as I read through my English translation of INFERNO. You can find these passages on my website: markscarbrough.com. But I wish you wouldn't. I wish you'd just sit back and revel in the plot.
Which in this case is the evil pouch of the thieves, the seventh sub-circle of the giant landscape of fraud. Ovid and Lucan don't stand a chance against our poet!
[01:58] Reading INFERNO, Cantos 24 - 25.
