This proud one would of his strength against almighty Jove make trial, c1890
" This proud one would of his strength against almighty Jove make trial, " said my guide; " whence he is thus requited: Ephialtes him they call", c1890. Dante and the Roman poet Virgil look upon the giant Ephialtes, who in Greek mythology tried to storm Olympus, and is punished by being chained up. Illustration from " The Vision of Hell" (Inferno), the first part of " The Divine Comedy" (La divina commedia) by Dante Alighieri. This long, narrative poem, written in Italian c1308-1321, tracing Dantes imaginary journey from Hell, through Purgatory and finally to Heaven and a beatific vision of God, has been published numerous times. This edition, published late 19th century, is illustrated by Gustave Dore. [Cassell Petter & Galpin, c1890]
