Detailed explanation-1: -Virgil explains to Dante that here, in the “vestibule” of Hell, are the people who did nothing to earn a place in either Heaven or Hell-their sin was “indifference.” The punishment these sinners face, which they lament loudly, is to be completely forgotten on earth.
Detailed explanation-2: -Among the sinners are the fallen angels who refused to commit themselves to either God or Lucifer and stayed neutral. However, a refusal to choose is a choice, an idea Dante uses that has since become central in existentialist philosophy.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Sin of the Third Circle In Inferno, the Third Circle of Dante’s Hell is reserved for the Gluttonous. One of the seven deadly sins, gluttony is defined as an overzealous or greedy appetite for something. Usually, it is associated with food and drink, but it can also refer to any type of consumption.
Detailed explanation-4: -The eighth circle of hell is reserved for those guilty of fraud. The circle is subdivided into 10 separate ditches, or Bolgia, representing various types of fraud: seducers, flatterers, simonists, sorcerers, unscrupulous politicians, hypocrites, thieves, deceivers, schismatics and falsifiers.
