1) Why do you think Dante (the author) switches to coldness for the ninth circle as opposed to the extreme heat and fire used in all the preceding circles?
2) How do you think the plot would have changed if Dante (the character) would have had to face this journey alone rather than with Virgil?
3) How do the things Dante saw in Hell apply to the living world?
4) How do you think this story applies to the modern world? And how do you think this story would be different had it taken place in modern times?
5) In what ways does Dante's exploration of Hell represent "The Hero's Journey"?
6) Why do you think it was so important that Dante had to see and understand Hell? Why do you think he specifically was chosen for this mission?
