    demons under the charge of Malebranche threaten to harm Dante the Pilgrim with their brute force and pitchforks. However‚ Virgil uses his wisdom and courage to hide Dante by placing him behind a rock to keep him out of reach of Malebranche’s hoard.

I believe this is the point in the novel where Virgil realizes that Dante the Poet cannot really protect himself in Hell due

    In Dante’s Inferno‚ Montaigne’s Essays‚ and Boccaccio’s Decameron‚ it seems that storytelling functions for entirely different purposes.

The seven women and three men in Boccaccio’s work recount
