Inferno: Canto 29 - The Hospital of Hell
Dante and Virgil enter the tenth and final bolgia of the 8th circle, the circle of fraud, where they encounter the first of the Falsifiers; those who practiced alchemy. We will meet two souls who knew Dante and learn what the poet can tell us about straw-men arguments, misuse of wealth, and how lies create a toxic, viral culture.
