Dante Alighieri, Apostle of Freedom

Written by Lonsdale Ragg, an Anglican priest, this book is intended to share Dante Alighieri's perspective on many topics pertaining to what the author calls liberal principles — from political liberty to religious ones. Dante is well-known for his book The Divine Comedy, originally called Comedìa (modern Italian: Commedia) and later christened Divina by Giovanni Boccaccio, which is widely considered one of the most important poems of the Middle Ages and the greatest literary works in the Italian language.
