Will she be the only one who will go to heaven: Who is Dante's Beatrice?

Durante, or Dante as he calls himself, sees Beatrice for the first time at a party held in one of the neighboring houses and falls in love as soon as he sees her. When they first met, Dante was nine years old and Beatrice was eight years old. In their second encounter, Dante is nineteen and Beatrice is eighteen. They have never seen each other for ten years, and they will never meet again after that. However, this stinginess of chance does not diminish Dante's love for Beatrice. The inspiration provided by two small encounters will only be enough for Beatrice to live and write.

Beatrice Portinari is the source of inspiration for The Divine Comedy, one of the most beautiful river poems in the world, which describes a journey to the afterlife. However, when Dante begins the 14,233-line Divine Comedy, Beatrice is now a young dead woman. Not only has she never been in love with Dante in her twenty-four-year life, but she is also unaware of Dante's love for her. She married a knight named Simone Burdi, who was probably attracted by his good looks and heroic stories, at the age of twenty-two, and she died of pregnancy poisoning two years later.

In Dante's love for Beatrice, as in all loves, there is a stylized dreaminess, disconnected from reality. Beatrice is the holiest, most spotless, bravest, most beautiful, and best of all women. So much so that all the holiness in the Divine Comedy was placed on his little shoulders. Even Dante's companion in heaven during his trip led by the great poet Vergilius is Beatrice. According to Dante, the spotless and innocent Beatrice could easily be his host in heaven instead of Virgil, who was not admitted to heaven because he was a pagan.

Beatrice "Bice" di Folco Portinari (1265 – 8 or 19 June 1290) was an Italian woman who has been commonly identified as the principal inspiration for Dante Alighieri's Vita Nuova, and is also identified with the Beatrice who acts as his guide in the last book of his narrative poem the Divine Comedy (La Divina Commedia), Paradiso, and during the conclusion of the preceding Purgatorio. In the Comedy, Beatrice symbolises divine grace and theology.

The work that inspired the birth of the Renaissance; is based on Dante, who finds himself in a dark forest in the middle of his life path, experiencing hell, purgatory, and heaven respectively.

Accompanying himself in Hell and Purgatory is the Roman poet Vergillius.

Dante puts the clergy on the bottom floor of hell and puts famous figures such as Homer, Horatius, Ovidius, Lucanus, Electra, Hektor, Salahattin Eyyübi, Socrates, Plato, Diogenes, Tales, Heraclitus, Democritus and Zenon on the first floor of hell.

Because they were not Christians but were still good people, he placed them in the only lighted part of hell.

But who do you think will meet him in heaven?

Beatrice, his platonic love whom he saw only twice in his life...

Beatrice guides Dante and takes him to the sky, the source of divine light, that is, to heaven.

Dante puts Beatrice, the woman he loves, in heaven because only pure love has the power to bring a person to the divine light.

In his first book, New Life, he talks about Beatrice, his immortal and greatest love, and love as follows:

'The lordship of love is good because it; keeps the soul of the one who believes in it away from vulgar things.'

'The lordship of love is not good, because the more the person who believes in it has faith in it, the more difficult and painful moments he has to experience.'

Although I don't have much knowledge,

* Dante saw Beatrice for the first time when he was 9 years old, crossing the road.

* and at the age of 19, she greeted him on the road for the second time, in a beautiful white dress, like an angel.

* and from that day on she became Dante's immortal love

* later Beatrice was married to a knight

* And we understand from his works that the news of his death came two years later.

Love; immortalizes Beatrice in Dante's works, and Dante has the opportunity to experience heaven thanks to Beatrice's love. Here is an inspiring love story….
