if the commedia was built like a cathedral it should look like the extravagant Sagrada familia in Barcelona. on the back is the passion facade. and the front is the nativity facade...the front is broken into 3 sub facades and each shows all the details of religious symbolism and such. The back shown below the below photo is the persecution and carrying of the cross ..(trying to say its the stations of the cross..) anywhoo the top picture i could see being a place for dante's commedia

jeeez. that thing is huge. i want to live in it. yeah.
We went there on our France and Spain trip this summer. It is by far my favorite cathedral i've seen. The size and detail on both the exterior and interior walls is incredible, and the fact that it is not even completed blows my mind.
Wow what a neat looking piece of architecture! If i was to imagine Dante as a cathedral, i would most certainly invision it like the 1st picture. On another subject, I do not really understand why a cathedral would be built in such a way. i feel that it would scare people into worshiping God which, as i see it, is the wrong way to bring God into people's lives.
i think that the whole dante constructing the divine comedy like a cathedral is a forced interpertation...anyone agree?
I WAS THERE A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO!! the amount of detail you can see when you're close up.
i think its forced to..but "if it was" it would look like this
Ok well since everyone is saying it...i was there too!! and that picture where the guy is eating is here..is that someone in circle 9?!
the guy biting the ear is from circle 9 and the other guy is from an old canto..ask ms. d
i think its neat how you can look at the structure and find a face in the building and the architecture is really interesting
