Everybody out of the house! Hurry, make it quick! You are under arrest under the order of Führer Adolf Hitler! The first words I hear before entering eternal hell. Full of dust, depression, and despair. Soon I would be stripped of my dignity and no longer be treated as an individual, I will be seen as lesser than cattle. They say I am to be punished for what I have done. But I know not the crime I have committed. Each day we are given less and less food. I can feel the sagging of my ripped trousers. Each married man was to give up their ring and any remembrance of their spouse. I was given a blue triangle to wear in order to be identified by the guards. I was told that since I was European I was to be killed in the next 24 hours. Each hour

Dante Alighieri presents a vivid and awakening view of the depths of Hell in the first book of his Divine Comedy, the Inferno. The reader is allowed to contemplate the state of his own soul as Dante "visits" and views the state of the souls of those eternally assigned to Hell's hallows. While any one of the cantos written in Inferno will offer an excellent description of the suffering and justice of hell, Canto V offers a poignant view of the assignment of punishment based on the committed sin. Through this close reading, we will examine three distinct areas of Dante's hell: the geography and punishment the sinner is restricted to, the character of the sinner, and the "fairness" or justice of the punishment in relation to the sin. Dante's Inferno is an ordered and descriptive journey that allows the reader the chance to see his own shortcomings in the sinners presented in the text.

...cape her judgment nor argument with her edicts will sway her. Hell is an absolute, and all the more forbidding because of it. Though the violence depicted in these myths varies, the overall story remains unchanged. Disobeying the laws and strictures set forth by the government and religious doctrines will exact a hefty price, perhaps eternally.
Edwards describes hell as being the most horrific place and how no one is immune from falling into the hollows of hell. Edwards states, “their foot shall slide in due time (Edwards).” Our lives hang by a thin thread above the pits of hell. Such a contrarian view by a preacher must be taken seriously. We can live our lives to the fullest, or we can live our lives in trepidation of being banished to hell. People of the congregation mu...

Can you imagine yourself locked up in a room with no doors? Similar to a room with no doors, there is no way out of hell if it was one's destiny. In the short story "The Devil & Tom Walker" by Washington Irving, the main character's fate is hell because of his wrong decisions in life, accepting a deal with the devil for earthly benefits.

Wisely, Irving combines characterization, mood and point of view to perpetuate the theme of the story in the reader's mind.

According to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Adolf was baptized a Catholic, even though he was born partially a Jew.

Hitler's book also got him out of jail, beginning his rise to power.

In Dante’s Inferno, hell is divided into nine “circles” of hell; the higher the number, the more likely the sin and the pain you will endure. However, I do not completely agree with Dante’s version of hell, perhaps due to the difference in time periods. In this essay, I will be pointing out my concerns with Dante’s description of hell and how I would recreate hell if I were Dante. The first level of hell in the Inferno is for those unbaptized yet virtuous. Although some did not have a sinful life, if they did not accept Christ, they were sent to Limbo.

In Dante’s Inferno, we followed Dante as he narrates his decent and observations of hell. A wonderful part of that depiction is his descriptions of the creative yet cruel punishments that each of the different sinners receive. This story is an integral part of literary history, and even if I were to have the imagination and ability of Dante Alighieri, I don’t believe I would change this tried and true version known universally.
