Dante Alighieri is chiefly remembered as the author of the
Divine Comedy and as the father of the Italian language.
As Italy celebrates the 700th anniversary of his death, with events including a legal re-examination of Dante s convictions that led to his exile, here are five things to know about a titan of world literature.
Father of Italian language
Dante is credited with helping create the Italian language by using the Tuscan vernacular of his time - rather than Latin - to write his masterpiece.
The
Divine Comedy, originally called
Comedy, is an imaginary journey through hell, purgatory and heaven, published in several stages in the early 14th century.

According to CBS News “New York State Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie said he authorized the Assembly Judiciary Committee to begin the investigation, which he said will have the power to interview witnesses and subpoena documents.”

The impeachment investigation comes after 59 lawmakers all signed a letter calling for Cuomo to step down.
