<span>1) In 'Inferno' as well as in the rest of 'Divine Comedy', Dante included a lot of elements from Bible and 'The Aeneid' by Vergil. Due to the lots of biblical elements this story can be defined as Biblical fiction and the depiction and meaning of Hell is a direct proof of this fact. Dante made a crossover of biblical and Vergilic elements describing his own personality in both allusional sacred way. </span>

Archy [21]

In "<em>The Stranger</em>", by Albert Camus, Meursault describes shooting the Arab after he's already dead as follows:

"I  knew  I’d  shattered  the  balance  of  the  day,  thespacious calm of this beach on which I had been happy. But I fired four shots more into the inert body, on which they left no visible trace. And each successive shot was another loud, fateful rap on the door of my undoing."

He describes it as <em>knocking loudly on the door of his downfall</em>.
