Reviews for "Dante's Inferno: Canto I"
Outstanding
Well, that was excellent. I have a minor point, however. Virgil is pronounced "Weer-gil", although that is not a huge issue. I love The Divine Comedy as a choice of subject, and if you were to continue the series, you would have my support. Please?
well this is just great...thanks...
from an italian newgrounder, really good idea and realisation, it is just as I imagined it reading the book,well maybe is just too much asking you to make it in medieval italian, keep up the good work
An Excellent Rendition
La Divina Comedia di Dante Aligheri is my favorite book and I think you did an excellent job showing the opening of the story so that modern audiences understand it while still maintaining the poetic genius that is Dante. Just a couple comments on things that I'd like to see tweaked. Firstly if you're going to put Dante in Poet's Laurels you have to give the classical poets the same honor. Virgil since he is Dante's idol and if you continue when you get to Homer he needs them as well because he is the Father of Poetry. Also in the credits you call La Divina Comedia a novel which is not right, it's an epic poem. The earliest European novel's didn't appear for a couple centuries after Dante's death. As a huge fan of Dante I would very much like to see you continue this project. I think that retelling Inferno in this fashion could get people more interested in 700 year old literature and that is in and of itself a noble cause. I'm also very curious to see how you would handle Dante's description of Mohommed and Homosexuals seeing as in our day and age those can be rather touchy topics and as a bisexual myself who understands where Dante was coming from with that description I'm really curious to see how you handle it for an audience that doesn't. All in all I am thoroughly impressed and would very much like to see you continue through Inferno. The first Canto is a wonderful taste and you've really got me wanting to see more.
amazing
im sure im biased, since la divina commedia is my favorite book, but this was amazing. please continue with some other notable cantos. maybe hit up the virtuous pagans, the simoniacs, or maybe just do the last ring with the betrayers.
please keep this going a bit further.
