Detailed explanation-1: -He does this because his poem’s spiritual pattern is not classical but Christian: Dante’s journey to Hell represents the spiritual act of dying to the world, and hence it coincides with the season of Christ’s own death.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dante imagined a journey through the three kingdoms of the afterlife, where he intended to explore the suffering of hell, the repentance of purgatory, and the ascent toward God in paradise so as to show to humanity the way that had been lost.
Detailed explanation-3: -Divided into three major sections-Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso-the narrative traces the journey of Dante from darkness and error to the revelation of the divine light, culminating in the Beatific Vision of God.
Detailed explanation-4: -The whole cosmos, according to Dante, ultimately depends on God who, as the ground of all being, exists beyond space and time in the Empyrean. The Empyrean is an immaterial heaven, made up only of the love and metaphysical light which God is. It is in the Empyrean that the angels and the blessed also dwell.
