WRITE MY ESSAY

Choose ONE of the sins listed in the Inferno and write a 4-6-page essay as to whether the punishment is appropriate to the sin. Research “contrapasso.” Do not simply regurgitate what you read from the internet. 
Cite specific references from the text that you elaborate on. 
It may require that you do some background research on a few things, such as the medieval understanding of Christianity or the historical context (ex. WHY the popes in hell are suffering the way that they are based on what did on Earth).  
Explain how the punishment is an inversion of the sin. 
Discuss why/how the encounter is important for the pilgrim Dante. Why is it important for him to speak with this person? How does it affect his development as a “hero?”
