Without the changes begun in Dante's time, it is difficult to see how the democratic system which is now spreading across human society would have become so well-established. In Dante's visit to the underworld, he sees that humanity is as capable of behaving badly as achieving great things for society. Target Audience Note: Rating: Not rated.
