According to Michael Meister's introduction to The Inferno, Dante's story still has a powerful effect on its readers hundreds of years after its creation because of C- it deals with the human struggle with good and evil found within every person, which is still a struggle today. The fight against evil has been a universal theme in literature and still today it relates with every and any person whether religious or not.
Michael Meister wrote the foreword to Dante´s inferno published in 2007. Meister, who is a priest, points out that the Dante´s vision is so powerful that it affects readers even today.
