Sentences are build by clauses. These clauses may be independent clauses or dependent clauses.
Independent clauses are those that can stand on their own. Whereas, dependent clauses can not.
Dependent clauses are used to make independent clauses more interesting or complete. There must be an independent clause for a dependent clause to be present.
I need to identify independent clause to properly define the use of dependent clause.
An independent clause has three components: subject, an action or predicate, express complete thought. An independent clause can simply be a subject and a verb. Ex: She sleeps.
A dependent clause has a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. Its presence in a sentence is made known when it is preceded by a marker word or conjunction.
Marker words - before, after, because, since, in order to, although, though, whenever, wherever, whether, while, even though, even if
conjunction - and, or, nor, but, yet.
A dependent clause must be joined to an independent clause to avoid becoming a fragment.
Example: Because I lied. - fragment
Because I lied, My mom got angry. - Correct Sentence
My mom got angry - independent clause
Because I lied - dependent clause - complete thought was express when it was attached to the independent clause

Answer and explanation:
<u>Dante Alighieri, in his poem "Inferno", places Brutus, Cassius, and Judas in the Ninth Circle and worst place in hell because they are betrayers</u>. Judas betrayed Jesus Christ, and Brutus and Cassius betrayed Roman emperor Julius Caesar.<u> We may say the context is that betrayal is the gravest sin anyone can commit.</u> Judas, Brutus, and Cassius are not only in the Ninth Circle, but in its fourth and final ring, which means they have the worst punishment. They are each being chewed by one of Satan's heads. Satan himself, who betrayed God, is stuck in a frozen lake. He cannot move, and he does not resemble his previous angelic form at all. <u>We may say the sub-text is both religious and political. </u>Dante is, at least in his writing, criticizing and punishing those he considers to be vile criminals, who have betrayed their masters and benefactors. No crime seems to be worse than betraying someone's love and trust.
