Commendable Story Paradiso Reader

Paradiso is not easy to enjoy. It is an alliance
between difficulty and controversy. It is a

archive of philosophical tidbits, which often
divert the reader's attention from the supposed
plot. Dante claims himself gifted and says that
all his said experiences are ones that he
encountered first-hand. And so the reader is
assumed to believe that the au...

and sorrow, gratitude and disappointment,
expectation and anxiety), as the praying person
stands 'naked' before spiritual realities. This is
to see what women say in prayer, and thereby to
get a glimpse into their spiritual life as that
may be nourished by African Religion and as it may
in turn contribute to African Religion itself. A
