Ancient World

Episode 28 - Canto XVIII. Dante in the Sphere of Jupiter.


Listen Later

In this episode we look at one of the most beautiful passages in the Paradise, where the Pilgrim reaches the sixth sphere of the Heavens:



I saw when I turned round: before my eyes


there was the pure white of the temperate star,

the sixth, that had received me in its glow;



Canto XVIII, 67-69.



And this wraps up the commentary on the Paradise, for now!
