Detailed explanation-1: -Summary: Canto XXXIII The sinner raises himself from his gnawing and declares that in life he was Count Ugolino; the man whose head he chews was Archbishop Ruggieri. Both men lived in Pisa, and the archbishop, a traitor himself, had imprisoned Ugolino and his sons as traitors.
Detailed explanation-2: -three cantiche, or narrative sections: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Each section contains 33 cantos, though the Inferno has one more (34), since the very first canto serves as a prologue to the entire work.
