Detailed explanation-1: -He has two guides: Virgil, who leads him through the Inferno and Purgatorio, and Beatrice, who introduces him to Paradiso.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bernard of Clairvaux was a 12th-century Benedictine monk and contemplative theologian. In the Empyrean, where he is depicted as a kindly, fatherly soul, he takes Beatrice’s place as Dante’s guide. He is especially devoted to the Virgin Mary, to whom he prays on Dante’s behalf before Dante’s vision of God.
Detailed explanation-3: -Early in his journey, Dante meets an old friend Casella, a musician who set Dante’s poems to music when they resided in Florence together. What’s particularly noteworthy is the warmth between the two friends once they’re reunited.
Detailed explanation-4: -Virgil greatly influenced Dante’s poetic technique and, by having him serve as the pilgrim’s guide, Dante demonstrates to his readers that he is following in Virgil’s poetic footsteps.
