"Jumalainen näytelmä: Kiirastuli" by Dante Alighieri is a narrative poem written between 1308 and 1321. This second part of The Divine Comedy follows Dante's journey through Purgatory, guided by the Roman poet Virgil. The work explores souls undergoing purification after death, cleansing themselves of the seven deadly sins as they ascend Mount Purgatory toward salvation. Drawing on medieval Catholic theology, particularly Thomas Aquinas's teachings, the poem represents the penitent Christian life and the soul's progression toward God through recognition and rejection of sin.
