Dantes 'Komödie', die erst Boccaccio 'göttlich' genannt hat, schildert eine Reise durch die drei Reiche des Jenseits. Durch Hölle und Fegefeuer führt den Autor, der zugleich seine eigene Hauptfigur ist, der römische Dichter Vergil. Durch das Paradies führt ihn seine bezaubernde Jugendfreundin Beatrice. Ihr Ziel ist die Erkenntnis der Liebe und die Anschauung Gottes. Auf ihrem Weg begegnen sie den zahllosen Seelen der Verstorbenen, die von ihrem Schicksal auf Erden berichten, darunter berühmte historische Persönlichkeiten, mythologische Gestalten und persönliche Bekannte des Autors aus Florenz. Dantes Meisterwerk heißt Komödie, weil sie im Unterschied zu Tragödie schlecht beginnt und gut endet.

This reinterpretation explores the role of St. Bernard in Dante's Commedia, emphasizing his significance as a spiritual guide and symbol of divine love. The analysis delves into the theological implications of his presence, shedding light on the deeper meanings of Dante's journey through the afterlife. By examining St. Bernard's influence on Dante's vision of salvation and grace, the work offers fresh insights into the interplay between faith, poetry, and the human experience in the context of the Commedia.

The story is about a man's search for love, barren of emotions from almost a parentless childhood to never feeling wanted from such an early age, to his life becoming a successful stock broker with international acclaim, to finding out his heritage to the Van Horn dynasty, a house of money, to realising love in his life to becoming a slave to money and a company that would not set him free. A trilogy of many parts murder, deceit, deception, romance, and family betrayal, revenge, hope and despair. Read as this book twists and winds to a dramatic conclusion. A man's journey to find happiness plagued by misfortune and a temptation that stalks him to despair and intrigue over the decades to an eventual climax, a cliff hanger literally. Help from a guardian angel as life gives a helping hand. Will his curse be over once and for all, or begin again for Isaac Montgomery?
