In Dante Alighieri's Inferno, Canto 4, Cirlce 1, the protagonist enters the Limbo. This is described as the home of virtuous non-christians and children who died without being baptized. Among the virtuous non-christians are Homer, Horace, Ovid, and Lucan (Classical Poets), among other heroes and genius minds of prior times. While the text alludes to the fact that these are not the only people in Limbo, these are the only ones mentioned by name.

Therefore, your best answer is classic poets and unbaptized infants.

______________________________________________

Thanhha Lai was born in the country of Vietnam. She and her family escaped to Alabama at the end of the war. She learned English from fourth-graders there, and then spent the next ten years improving her grammar. She began her journalism career as a reporter at The Orange County Register. She shifted to fiction, earning an MFA from New York University and having short stories published in a variety of periodicals and anthologies.

Then followed "Inside Out & Back Again," a verse book that won a National Book Award and a Newbery Honor based in part on her youth as a refugee in Alabama. The following book was "Listen, Slowly," a middle grade fiction about a young Vietnamese-American girl.

It's a stark and honest tale that follows Hà as she leaves behind the only home she's ever known to journey to America by boat. Hà and her family struggle to find their footing in the United States, despite the fact that she has left the conflict behind. They're finally gaining their bearings towards the end of the year and as the book closes everyone clutching onto faith that things would get better.

The narrative takes place over the course of a year and is told in brief free-verse poems: As the Communists take over her hometown of Saigon in 1975, 10-year-old Ha and her family are forced to flee Vietnam. Ha's family arrives in Alabama with a sponsor family after covertly escaping by ship and residing in two temporary refugee camps.

They must learn a new language, attend school, look for jobs, establish friends, cope with bullying and mistrust and figure out how to become American citizens. They must also say a final, symbolic goodbye to Ha's father, who has been missing in action for the past ten years.

Tenacity, courage, and intelligence are among Ha's characteristics in Inside Out and Back Again. She's also hesitant and frightened, which is understandable considering her family's situation.

Inside Out and Back Again's dilemma is that the Vietnam War was approaching Saigon, forcing them to flee to Alabama. Inside Out and Back Again begins with Ha arriving at her new school, unable to communicate with anybody and being ridiculed because she is different from everyone else.

Her migration to America brings with it a slew of new obstacles. All refugees confront obstacles such as bullying, prejudice, and a lack of language skills. Inside Out and Back Again is a storey about a refugee's common experience. These difficulties are depicted in Ha's narrative.
