This book is an essay that focuses on the importance of Dante's "Divine Comedy". The essay discusses how the "Divine Comedy" is a landmark in history, as it is not just a magnificent poem but also the beginning of a language and the opening of national literature. The essay also discusses the mystery of the creative process and how Dante's work has become a permanent feature of the world's literature. The essay is followed by a translation of Dante's "De Monarchia" by F.J. Church. The "De Monarchia" is a work of political speculation that discusses the medieval idea of the Empire and should be compared with the "De Regimine Principum" by Thomas Aquinas.

This little book has been composed on the principle of following as far as may be the life of the Apostle himself, then those of his immediate disciples, and beyond them of the persons who had been instructed by their teaching; then of showing how the churches thus formed met trial and persecution, and, as far as possible, sketching the vicissitudes of their history to the present time. - Preface.
