Explanation:

The most famous works of Dante Alighieri was "The Divine comedy". It made a remarkable impression in literature and theology.

Dante Alighieri was born in '1265' to a family who was involved in the complex Florentine political scene. His mother died in his early childhood.

His marriage was arranged with a family friend, Gemma Donati when he was only tweleve years old. But Dante loved Beatrice Portinari. She had a great influence on his life. She is the backbone of his famous work “Divine Comedy”. Beatrice was a love at first sight for Dante when he was nine years old, but his love was never reciprocated by her. She died in 1290 unexpectedly. She was a major inspiration of major works by Dante.

By 1295, he got completely involved in political causes. He was elected to the City Council and was a member of Guelph political party. Florence had two major political parties at that time: Guelphs and Ghibellines.
