Each episode of AVALON attempts to bring to bear the great works of human culture from the past upon the dilemma of living in the present age.

  • Dante Alighieri wrote The Divine Comedy in the early 14th century.  His extended poem consisting of 14,233 lines divided into three cantiche of 33 cantos each helped establish the Tuscan language and granted us one of the most vivid articulations of the afterlife, hell, purgatory, heaven.  But what relevance does this work have for anyone today?  Who can read that many lines of poetry?  Who even takes these realms of the afterlife seriously anymore?  In this episode we briefly examine that initial entrance into the interior journey toward meaning, purpose, and eventual freedom that each one of us actually does crave in our life.
