Dante: Hell on the Web

Dateline: 02/02/00

A new multimedia project allows visitors to explore Dante's 700-year-old vision of Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise.

Sponsored by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, more commonly known as UNESCO, the project features 120 original illustrations from a French translation of Dante's master work.

Artist Vladimir Liagatchev spent more than 10 years creating the images for a book before he decided to approach UNESCO with the work and his ideas for a digital project.

With UNESCO's navigational system users begin their tour through Dante's world with a single image. They can then choose to navigate Dante's work step-by-step or head straight to Heaven, Hell, or Purgatory.

The UNESCO site isn't the first Dante hypertext. Digital Dante, a project of Columbia University's Institute for Learning Technologies, has been online for six years.

Hundreds of artists from Botticelli to Blake have produced illustrations for Dante's work, many of which are reproduced on the Digital Dante site.
