When I wake up, I saw blood around me, and I hear some miserable crying voices from far away. I lift my head and solidifie my eyes, and I see the mouth of a fain blood stain, and he is smiling to me. I realize that he is not a human, he is a ghost! I painfully shout out loud "Oh, My God!" Then I fainted in the ground. When I wake up again, I first squinting carefully look around, and I see that there is no one around me. I rapidly breath a few times. And I think where is this place? I just want to run out this ugly place, I do not know how many miles I ran out to arrive a place surrounded by thorns. And I carefully look around again and find out a door with a word "hell". I tell myself, since I have been came to here, I think I need to look around this adventure world. …show more content…

And I see there is a big fire wheel fall, fall to the head of the sinners, and the steamer drilled into their bodies instantly burned, temporarily kills the sinners more than thirty times. The sinners shout out loud: "Please kill me, I know how many worst thing I did in the world, and caused I get suffering and pain now." When they are shouting over, and then they fainted on the ground. Many jailers are holding a knife to cut the bodies of sinners in order to get and eat their lunch. The sinners' suffering in hell is

Seated in his fire-filled chair, the devil dominates the bottom-center of the painting. With the very dark lighting the mood towards this half of the painting is dark, gloomy, lonely, and unpleasing. Frankcen illustrates the true biblical message of hell. What is very interesting about this painting is how hell is extremely large, filled with a mass of people, and takes up about half of the painting. However, some of the people are babies. This alludes to the fact that some people are could possibly be born evil and that their fate is inevitable. A majority of the people set in hell are still looking up worshiping heaven while regretting their mistakes. The painter is trying to illustrate how many people do not make the right choices and end up miserable. The way Fans paints hell in this picture is very similar to the way Dante describes hell in this book The Inferno. Even though there are not nine layers of hell in this painting the descriptions are quite similar. The people standing in line waiting for their punishments, the dark gloomy vibe, and a mixture of young and old souls, are represented in the painting and in Dante’s story (1614-1702). Francken’s goal when interpreting hell is to not only make his viewers fear it, but come to the realization that is where a majority of people end
This Passage is significant in many ways. O’Brien has a vague yet vivid memory of throwing a grenade and killing a young Vietnamese soldier in the midst of war and what really struck him was the corpse of the young man. He is dejected because of what he has done, and was even speaking in the third person and constructing fantasies as to what the man must have been like before he was killed. Weaving the story of the young man’s life into something similar as his own. The way O’Brien achieves this is through certain literary techniques. One is being Imagery. On the top of page 127 he says “The nose was undamaged. The skin on the right cheek was smooth and fine-grained and hairless. Frail-looking, delicately boned” (O’Brien 127). On the top of page 128 he also says “Along the trail there were small blue flowers shaped like bells. The young man 's head was wrenched sideways, not quite facing the flowers, and even in the shade a single blade of sunlight sparkled against the buckle of his ammunition belt. The left cheek was peeled back in three ragged strips. The wounds at his neck had not yet clotted, which made him seem animate even in death, the blood still spreading out across his shirt.” (O’Brien 128). O’Brien uses words like
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.
is exemplified in No Exit. It is a portrayal that life in Hell is just
Upon entering hell with Virgil, Dante becomes witness to the true perfection of the justice done to sinners after their earthly life is over. This divine justice inflicted by God chooses to punish the souls in hell in a way very similar or representative to how the souls sinned on Earth. For instance, those guilty of the sin of wrath "tear each other limb from limb" (133), a punishment which directly relates to the actions of the sinners. However, there are also punishments that are more symbolic of the actions of the sinners, such as th...
Inferno, the first part of Divina Commedia, or the Divine Comedy, by Dante Alighieri, is the story of a man's journey through Hell and the observance of punishments incurred as a result of the committance of sin. In all cases the severity of the punishment, and the punishment itself, has a direct correlation to the sin committed. The punishments are fitting in that they are symbolic of the actual sin; in other words, "They got what they wanted." (Literature of the Western World, p.1409) According to Dante, Hell has two divisions: Upper Hell, devoted to those who perpetrated sins of incontinence, and Lower Hell, devoted to those who perpetrated sins of malice. The divisions of Hell are likewise split into levels corresponding to sin. Each of the levels and the divisions within levels 7,8, and 9 have an analogous historical or mythological figure used to illustrate and exemplify the sin.
Dante’s Inferno presents the reader with many questions and thought provoking dialogue to interpret. These crossroads provide points of contemplation and thought. Dante’s graphic depiction of hell and its eternal punishment is filled with imagery and allegorical meanings. Examining one of these cruxes of why there is a rift in the pits of hell, can lead the reader to interpret why Dante used the language he did to relate the Idea of a Just and perfect punishment by God.
I try to walk faster so that I can finally get to my destination but the walked seem like it was taking years to go there. As if the walk through the dark valley would never end. The full moon was shining very bright and the stars were out as I heard the sound of the gust wind, I don’t know why my heart began to beat faster, faster and faster. So then I began to run because of how frightened I was, as I was running I tripped over that seemed to be hard almost as if it was a bone. I fell forward and landed on my face, having my face painted towards the grassy muddy ground. As soon as I tried to get myself up something was licking my ear and screamed so loud that my echo was heard in the valley. I looked to where it was licking my ear and noticed it was a black dog with grey eyes. I was trying to figure out if he was a wolf or a dog but then I noticed his tongue and teeth and knew it was a dog. The dog seemed to want to play with me he immediately continued to lick me as I was scared for my life. I finally got up and walked away because I just wanted to go home where I was safe. The dog continued to follow me right behind me every step of the way. I began to run so that he stopped following but I was wrong he ran with me and even faster than me. He continued to follow me until I was home, I stepped inside my house and he wanted to step inside too. At that point I felt really bad for the dog and let him in. Something about this dog brought my attention so I decided that I would keep him as my
In this circle Dante the pilgrim, and his spiritual guide Virgil, saw for the first time the souls being punished for their sins. At the entrance there was the bestial Minos, who is the expert judge of the sins and places each sinner into the appropriate circle. After passing Minos, Dante find himself hearing “sounds of weeping” and “notes of anguish” (110, 25). He describes this place with no light, with black, internal storms. The wind would sweep and whirls the spirits with all the blast and never stop or slow down, as in life they felt themselves helpless in the tempests of passion. These condemned souls are the ones who sin in lust, the carnal sin. Some souls, described by the author, would look like flying cranes and they would form a stretching endless line in the sky flying up and down with shrinks and laments. After Dante the Pilgrim, heard some of the names of the famous knight and ladies from ancient times, he felt pity for these souls. When Dante saw two souls together in the winds lighter than the others he wanted to know their story. Francesca and Paulo (who was her brother-in-law), were lovers and they were killed by her husband while committing adultery. Their punishment is that they were killed together while committing sin, and now they are condemned always together in Hell, reminding each other of their sin all the time. When Dante heard the story of Francesca and
He gives reason to fear and respect the law of God, lest eternal punishment be your only promise in the afterlife. These punishments are as relevant as can be, so he offers a very vivid picture of hell. The men that he puts in hell give it a realistic twist, enhancing the fear that is felt upon reading this work.
The shame which they all feel, comes from the loss of Heaven or more specifically the loss to Heaven, in their rebellious conflict. Another part of the shame may be the result of their loss, which is Hell. They were accustomed to a beautiful Paradise, yet they reside in a Paradise Lost. Their shame of defeat is thus added to be their exile to this dismal, dark, burning place.
Justice is one of the major building block that society is built upon. It gives people a sense of retribution when they have been wronged. In Dante’s Inferno, justice is served in the supernatural realm. Throughout this play, the reader is exposed to the inner working of hell and the nine circles of specialized punishment it is composed of. Justice, in Dante’s Inferno, differs from justice in the mortal world in that it is decided, not by humans, but by God. However, it is not God’s justice that is portrayed in this divine comedy. While this divine comedy depicts justice coming from God, the justice in the Inferno is based on Dante’s personal views of the severity of the sin and the sinner. This paper will examine this issue by looking into the life of Dante and the potential reasons for his rankings of the sin pertaining to specific circles of hell.
The infernos worst judgments in the afterlife. The inferno is a place where all people go when they pass away if they were evil during living. when the people pass away they are judge for all their sins that they have committed wenth they were alive. Each person that goes to the inferno is sent to a special place where they pay for their sins according to what their sins are. They are many different ways to pay for their sins according to what the sins are. People who are in the inferno suffer for being a singer during living and in the afterlife they need to play for for all sins they committed.
The plot centers around three main characters, Joseph Garcin, Estelle Rigault and Inez Serrano. Hell, as portrayed in this work, is no more than a room with three couches and Second Empire decorum. There are no mirrors, no windows, no books, generally no form of amusement. Some very human privileges that we take for granted have also been taken away: sleep, tears, and even momentary reprieves of blinking.
I observed if we die, we will go to somewhere where have big door and small door. Where do you want to go in? Of course almost say big door. But some guys say small door. That meaning is that they don’t have greed and they believed God before dying. If you go in the Big Door, you will fall into hell. I just heard. One woman fainted and in her dream, she saw Big Door and Small Door. She was trying to see inside Small Door. There were flowers and it seemed peaceful. She was wondering what was inside big door. So, She was trying to see inside Big Door. There were fire and some people who were screaming and crying. She felt very stuffed and scary. Then, Someone pulled up her and said “It’s not time for you yet. Go back and take care of your sons”. She woke up and she was in the hospital. Her sons were crying beside her and she said “I saw hell and heaven in my dream”. After that happened, She went to church really diligently.
