Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy remains one of the most significant literary works in Western history, shaping not only the field of poetry but also theology, philosophy, and even politics. The concept of love, Amor, is central to Dante's vision of the universe. To understand the scope of love in the Divine Comedy is to grasp the cosmic order that defines Dante's universe—an order where love is the binding force of existence itself, affecting everything from the stars to the damned souls of Hell. Dante's portrayal of love as the primal force driving both creation and the trajectory of the human soul is deeply informed by centuries of philosophical and theological thinking, from the ancient Greeks to medieval Christian thinkers.
