Shownotes

As we've done across the second canticle of Dante's masterpiece, COMEDY, we're taking some time to read through the final two cantos of PURGATORIO, XXXII and XXXIII.

I'll read my rough English translation of the cantos. I'll finesse these more when we take the cantos apart passage by passage.

For now, just sit back and listen to the narrative sweep of the final two cantos of PURGATORIO, truly the climax of the canticle.

[01:43] A read-through of my loose translation of PURGATORIO, Cantos XXXII and XXIII.
