Canto 1

10:= 31 AM
Explain why Mt. Joy is easy to climb.
What do the lion, leopard, and she wolf represent?
Dante divides = hell into three sections, one for each kind of sin: incontinece (lust, sloth, and gluttony), violence (wrath, greed, and envy), and fraud (treason, and ultimately pride). Which animal is incontinece? Violence? Fraud?
Medi= eval minds were obsessed with animals and animal symbolism
"wise as an owl"
How can poetry save you from the dark wood of error?
Why do you have to travel through hell to get to safety?
Pa= sted from <http://mrmu= llen.pbwiki.com/Inferno-Canto-1>
"Our" life's journey
Inviting the reader in
Wakes up - sle= eping metaphor
Losing way
How did I get here?
Telling the st= ory from the past
We know he made it out
