Dante's Divine Comedy Inferno Canto is in 30 seconds I remember the Giants I don't remember their names one of them could not talk English so he blows a horn when he's mad and then I remember the other giant Who had who was all chained up and I I actually do not remember why I think he was just a naughty boy oh just a naughty boy they're just now entering the Ninth Circle keep in mind that at this point he's in the bottom of Hell he's at the very bottom of the world this is the ninth circle of hell this is the circle for treachery against people who have reason to trust you treachery against people who are close to you in some way they're walking down a slight slope and as he's walking he's kind of looking around his surroundings and he hears a voice call out whoa watch where you're going there bud don't step on any heads and he looks down and he realizes the ground he's walking on is ice ice that is so thick and Frozen he says it's like a giant sheet of glass and inside of this ice are people they're frozen in such a way that just their heads are popping up above the ice oh but he can see their bodies blow too because again it's like glass all the people he sees their heads are bowed forward their teeth are chattering because it's very very cold down here and they're constantly crying tears are pouring out of their eyes down onto the ground he sees two people in particular who are very close to each other their heads are touching each other in fact their hair is like tied together and so he asks who they are he's like who who you guys they look up to look at him because they hear someone talking right when they look up their tears are still pouring from their eyes and it immediately freezes into ice and blinds them oh wow this makes him very angry so they start screaming in pain and start like animals bashing their heads together like against each other a nearby head starts talking to them and says those two there they were brothers they inherited a castle so it belonged to both of them and they ended up killing each other over issues of both inheritance and also politics this is a good time for me to start talking about Dante's politics where Dante is from is kind of split into two major political parties called the guelphs and the gibblings so Dante is a Guelph but within the Guelph there's another division the guelphs are divided into black guelphs and white guelphs so these brothers one was a Guelph and one was a Ghibli they were also politically opposed as well the head lists off a few of the people who are down here in the same area of this circle um he mentions Madrid King Arthur's nephew who tried to murder him another guy somewhere down here is someone who murdered their cousin in this case the he murdered his cousin because they were both guelph's but one of them was a black Guelph and one of them was a white Guelph and another person down here who killed his nephew in order to get his inheritance and so this is the first of four sub-circles within the Ninth Circle it's called Cana and it is for those who betray the trust of family members he continues walking on for a while and he's not really watching where he's going so he accidentally kicks someone in the face and this dude boy does he get pissed by this because he starts yelling off at Dante and screaming and like cursing and swearing and just on and on Dante says he said yo dude like what's going on what's what's your problem um by the way who are you and the head responds and who are you who go through the dead Larder of anantora kicking the cheeks of others so hard that were you alive you could not kick harder and NADA says well okay I am alive uh the reason though you should tell me who you are is I'm gonna go back up to the real world I'm gonna write a book I'll tell people about you and the guy's like you know I'd rather not actually I don't want people to hear about me this is Dante's response I grabbed the hair of his dog thruff and I said either you tell me truly who you are or you won't have a hair left on your head oh gosh it sounds like the inferno's getting to Dante a little bit this guy though he says he shoots right back like I don't care do whatever you want I'm not gonna tell you my name and so he does Dante starts pulling his hair out by like the handle obviously this hurts so the head he starts screaming in pain a voice calls out off to the side and says Boca what the hell's wrong and then he says like bro it's painful enough to be here do I have to listen to you screaming yeah it's a good point you're just making the torment worse Dante knows who this is immediately this is Boca delaghi abati he was a Florentine who cut off another Florentine standard bearer's hand the standard bear wasn't able to hold the standard the Army got demoralized they lost a battle this is antonora and this is the second sub Circle within the Ninth Circle this is for treachery against country Dante says like oh I know who you are I am going to tell everyone about you and make sure they all know where you are in hell and the guy it's just like he's like he's just oh just tell them whatever you want just please leave me alone like he just wants Audrey to leave but but he also says you know what though as long as as long as you tell people who's on here in Hell tell them about that guy that guy who just told you who my name was he said that guy over there ISO apparently was the commander of an army but he was bribed to let a French army pass him without fighting back so again betrayal of country and then he goes on to name on a couple other people who are down here as well one interestingly though was a person who was a former gibbling who left his party to support the guelphs which I think is interesting for two reasons because first of all Dante was a Guelph so he's putting this guy in hell for betraying his own party even though it was the opposing party to join a different party but it also shows that Dante views um betraying your political party to be the same thing here is betraying your nation because this is a circle for betraying your nation finally as he's moving forward he comes upon two people who are so close in the ice that they're actually in the same hole one of the guys has his neck like over to the side and the second guy is just furiously chomping away at his neck goodness sake Dante asks whoa dude who are you and uh who's that guy and why do you hate him so much that's the end of the Kanto oh foreign
