Question

form he used, which brings out the texts’ character. The
character is sustained by the terza rima form of the text, for
it gives the words a feeling of being in motion. They are not
simply static, or words that present the story. They are,
instead, seemingly in motion, touching on both past truths
and a capacity for the future. That there is this illusion of
movement within Dante’s words with the use form further
affirm and portray the emotion in his words and in his
