Detailed explanation-1: -Dante’s model of “two suns, ” each deriving its authority directly from God, challenges the medieval Christian notion of the pope as “sun” and the emperor as “moon” (based on Genesis 1:16), with the lesser sphere wholly dependent on the greater sphere for its authority and influence.
Detailed explanation-2: -While living together, Paolo and Francesca fell in love. Unfortunately, the brother discovered their affair and killed the two lovers, condemning his brother and his wife to an eternity in Hell.
Detailed explanation-3: -He has two guides: Virgil, who leads him through the Inferno and Purgatorio, and Beatrice, who introduces him to Paradiso.
