Detailed explanation-1: -Dante called the poem “Comedy” (the adjective “Divine” was added later, in the 16th century) because poems in the ancient world were classified as High ("Tragedy") or Low ("Comedy").
Detailed explanation-2: -“La Commedia”, as Dante originally named it, is an imaginary journey through the three realms of the afterlife: inferno (hell), purgatorio (purgatory) and paradiso (heaven).
Detailed explanation-3: -The Divine Comedy, Italian La divina commedia, original name La commedia, long narrative poem written in Italian circa 1308–21 by Dante. It is usually held to be one of the world’s great works of literature.
