26 Inferno

What is the tone of the passage? Use the tone words list to help you.

The tone of the passage is despairing.

How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.

He created this tone through his descriptive words meaning his diction mostly , because the way he decided to express things was strongly deep. An example is, "Here, deciding who will be sent..."(26 Inferno). This phrase is an example how he clearly shows his passionate feelings on the subject. It is very despairing in the way he stated this with the word "deciding" especially with the dot, dot, dot. Also the, "tortured souls" gives some tone through the descriptive word before souls showing how the scene is for these souls. They are in a very despairing situation.

Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage.

1.  "Whose name is Minos. Horrible to see" This phrase can be looked deeper upon through the sentence because of the structure of the words. The order gives strong meaning to what hell is really like. The pause shows and strengthens the idea of how "horrible" it is to witness.

2.  "that way the crimes they hoped he might forget" It is pretty much saying there is a dead hope in their futures. The tone is depressing because they know that  Minos will not forget or forgive for their sins. The sentence order also coveys the feeling that their crime will never be forgotten.

3. "That brought them to this pass so none escapes, as all yell their complaints at that brute fact" You can infer a reference to the Odyssey as these souls being in between a 'rock and a hard place' from the part of the story with Scylla. There is a tone of hopelessness, because there is a pass that has not escapes. These souls are stuck forever. Their screams are their pain to hope for a better future, but truth be there is no other future for them.

Identify and explain the function of 1 writing technique in the passage:

"They watch his living bull-whip do its sums Always for others, not for them" This phrase seems to contradict itself because all these people will all be judged yet they say that it is always for others. But those people who they are watching getting judged by Minos are watching those who have not been judged and are thinking they are the others. There is souls on both sides who may both wish to be the other or don't want to be either.

Passage:  Pg 19: "Of the great pit of the piteous abyss, Where sad cries have the dubious privilege, of gathering in perpetual synthesis, and griefs already infinite are by, and their own great number multiplied, to swell, uproar to an eruption. It was Hell. And as it sounded, so it looked: all bad. "
What is the tone of the passage:
The tone is dark, despairing, gloomy, and even foreboding.
How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.
He created this tone through diction and the words he used such as grief, bad, sad, cries, piteous, and dubious. These all show that it was a depressing scene and it the word choice made the reader feel that depression in this scene, and made us feel gloomy and foreboding, also these words make the passage very dark.
Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage:
1. "where sad cries have the dubious privilege" this shows that there is something that is making these people sad and showing that they have doubtful privileges in the setting of Hell
2. "griefs already infinite" this show how much malice and evil there is
3. "their own great number multiplying" tells us that there is more people people coming into this doomed place despite the enormous number there already is, this can foreshadow how he doesn't believe that this is a rightful place for these grieving people to be
Identify and explain the function of 1 writing technique used in this passage:
There is a periodic sentence, this to continue on the idea of making you understand how foreboding and malicious the setting is, yet not quite telling us straight up what it is. The simple sentence is used after the periodic sentence to straight up say that this is Hell and this is a place that no one wants to go, and t have an impact, and make readers notice it better in the passage.

The tone is hopeless and grim.

How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.

Dante created these tones by his diction, witch created the hopeless and grim void in Dante's passage.

Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage.

1.  In Dante's Inferno, it says, "And went down as if going down to stay." This is expressing the effect of the environment had on him and the fact that the hopeless love sick environment transformed onto him.

2.  When Dante talks to the to the unfairly placed lover by saying, "For Love can will will's loss." This develops that it hurts him and his belief in the goodness of the religion ruling hell, and the fact that the lust that comes with love can lead to an eternal suffering.

3. When Dante wept for the suffering in "The other wept as if forgetting how/ To stop." This is developing Dante's thoughts of those who did not deserve and he proves the fact of his sorrow is taking over his mind and taking away his once pure view.

Clive James Canto 5 110 pg 29
The tone of the passage gives off a sorrowful, dramatic vibe.
Dante created this tone by pleading to God, aka The Emperor of the Universe when he saw that the people's punishments were unjust and cruel.

When Dante grudgingly states, "If the Emperor of the Universe in his mercy were our friend, we would pray." Dante means that he cannot look to God when he doesn't end this action of punishment. Dante is disappointed in God's decisions to approve punishment upon those who are unworthy of it. When he says "would" he is exemplifying the possibility of of forgiveness and he is conveying how much he blames Christ for allowing Lucifer to go on with his punishments.

Dante pleads that "Love, in gentle hearts" conveying the idea that love is not a punishment, but that love is beauty. The people being punished in this circle of hell are being to unjustified torture causing eternal pain for something that is meant to be gentle and beautiful.

When Dante says "Love pardons no one loved from love" he is releasing a feeling of unsatisfaction. Love is irresistable and it is cruel to be punished for it. Dante is saying that love is natural, love is meant to be shared. He is naming the second level of hell unjustified and unnecessary.

Repetition is used in "Love pardons no one loved from love" i order to exhibit an idea that love is not lust. It's emphasizing the notion that Dante is displeased.

Hopeless

How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.

Dante created this tone through his word choice of, "has even one ever gotten out." This word choice establishes the hopeless tone because saying even one shows that he droughts anyones escape.

Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage.

1.  "Greater in its sad cries." I understand by this quote that the hell Dante depicts must be brutal and horrible.

2.  I also understand that the darker the levels get the more depressing things get going down deeper into hell. We can tell that Dante dosent agree with the depiction.

Identify and explain the function of 1 writing technique in the passage:

By using the technique of repetition Dante depicts hell as a similar event when compared to when you travel deeper. The farther you venture down in hell, the more the tone of how Dante speaks is altered. Dante in limbo is generally confused but as he ventures further the tone becomes more dolorous.

Tone is depressing and hopeless.
He created the tone by using word choice (cruelly, alone, etc.), and also uses Dante's reaction as a telltale sign of depression.
1. Love is supposed to be a beautiful, caring thing but it ultimately "killed" a lot of people that are in the second circle
2. Dante fainting and crying proves how intense, and sad hell really is.
3. Most people don't even deserve to be in this circle of hell. They're unjustly put there.
"For love can will will's loss..." is an example of personification. The comparison of loss to love helps the reader understand how much love the man held, and how much he really lost when he went to hell for it. The man still loves even though he was put in hell for it.

The tone of this passage is harsh and morbid.

How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.
Alighieri created a harsh tone by showing that the people in the 2nd circle of hell did not deserve to be there through his expression of his emotions, and emphasizing that they received harsh judgement from Minos as well as harsh punishments. The 2nd circle is harsh on Dante as well because he is clearly having trouble coping with and facing the reality of the 2nd circle of hell. This passage also has a morbid tone because Dante feels pity for the people in the 2nd circle that he believes are innocent, so he begins to weep, which has an effect on the reader.

Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage.

1.  The word choice used to describe the second circle of hell is depressing and dark, which conveys a morbid tone.

2.  The women that tells her story of why she is in the second circle of hell helps the reader better understand/ gives the reader a better insight of why Dante believes that it is not fair for them to be in hell.

3. The punishment was a metaphor for how the lust/love wasn't controllable.

the tone of this passage is very depressing and sad, for it is expressing the hopelessness of the people who are entering hell, as they realize they will not be able to leave, but only go deeper into hell's depths.

How did Dante Alighieri create this tone? Explain.

Dante created this tone through the ideas in his mind of what might happen to him if he did happen to go to hell. Like us, we all have an interpretation of what hell is like, Dante's however, is more thought out than other peoples perception of hell.

Provide 3 annotations that inform your understanding of the passage.

1.  In  the first part of Canto 5,  the passage shows us details of Dante's thoughts on hell. For he is scared, and as he progresses to circle 2, he begins to weep and cry, and actually ends up fainting.

2.  On Dante's trip down the layers of hell, he realizes to start talking to fellow people around him. As he gets to know his surrounding and understand the reality of how horrible hell is, he pleads to God for forgiveness.

3. Dante takes the time to ask himself why is he here, for he does not know what he did wrong. This is significant because he does not think he did anything wrong, and does not understand why he would be punished.
