Được tôn vinh khắp thế giới như một tượng đài văn học, Thần khúc, hoàn thành năm 1321 và được viết bởi Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), được nhiều người coi là tác phẩm vĩ đại nhất từng được sáng tác bằng tiếng Ý. Bài thơ sử thi mô tả cuộc hành trình của Dante qua Địa ngục, Luyện ngục và Thiên đường, đại diện, ở mức độ sâu hơn, con đường của linh hồn hướng tới sự cứu rỗi.
Trong vài năm cuối đời, nhà thơ và nghệ sĩ lãng mạn William Blake (1757-1827) đã tạo ra 102 bức tranh minh họa cho kiệt tác của Dante, từ những bản phác thảo bằng bút chì đến những bức tranh màu nước thành phẩm. Giống như bài thơ sâu rộng của Dante, các bức vẽ của Blake bao gồm từ những cảnh đau khổ trong địa ngục đến ánh sáng thiên đường, từ sự biến dạng kinh hoàng của con người đến sự hoàn hảo của hình dạng vật chất. Mặc dù trung thành với văn bản, Blake cũng đưa ra góc nhìn của riêng mình cho một số chủ đề trọng tâm của Dante.
Ngày nay, các bức tranh minh họa của Blake, được để lại trong nhiều giai đoạn hoàn thiện khác nhau vào thời điểm ông qua đời, được phân tán ở bảy cơ sở khác nhau. Ấn bản TASCHEN này tập hợp những tác phẩm này lại với nhau, cùng với những đoạn trích chính từ kiệt tác của Dante. Hai bài tiểu luận giới thiệu đề cập đến Dante và Blake, cũng như các nghệ sĩ lớn khác đã lấy cảm hứng từ Thần khúc, bao gồm Sandro Botticelli, Michelangelo, Eugene Delacroix, Gustave Dore và Auguste Rodin.
Với việc đọc sâu các bức tranh minh họa của Blake và nhiều cảnh quay cận cảnh để làm lóa mắt những chi tiết tinh tế nhất, đây là cuộc gặp gỡ ngoạn mục với hai trong số những tài năng nghệ thuật xuất sắc nhất trong lịch sử, cũng như với các chủ đề phổ quát như tình yêu, cảm giác tội lỗi, sự trừng phạt, sự trả thù và sự cứu chuộc.
