Dante Alighieri and Shakespeare –– purgatory
A classic book has three main factors that a reader notices the first time he or she reads a text. Firstly, great literature such as a poem, play or novel is mainly a philosophical expression of allegory or images, and in the case of classical texts, the philosophy often disappears into images. In essence, a literature work cannot function without great ideas or subtexts telling the readers all about it. This fusion of thoughts and experiences, of reflection of life meaning and life itself, is what comprises of great literature work (Alighieri 5). Further literature is not always about language but about life.
