Answer:
Dante's journey is actually a metaphor for the progress of the human soul. Dante begins by showing us the worst of the worst in Hell—the human race's deepest depravity—and slowly works through the renunciation of sin and the divine-like qualities to which human beings can aspire. Dante saw hope for mankind.
