Books to Read Before Dante’s Divine Comedy

This year marks the 700th anniversary of Dante’s death. There’s no better time to read the Divine Comedy than now! But Dante does love a good reference so you might want to check out some of his favorite books as well.

Books I mentioned:

The Bible (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Psalms, Song of Solomon, and I intended to include Isaiah as well)
Vita Nuova by Dante
Aeneid by Virgil
The Odyssey by Homer
The Odes by Horace
Civil War by Lucan
The Metamorphoses by Ovid
Confessions by St. Augustine
The Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius
The Writings of St. Thomas Aquinas
