Publius Papinius Statius is known for his appearance as a guide in the "Purgatory", a poem written in what century?
Purgatorio Purgatorio (] ; Italian for "Purgatory") is the second part of Dante's "Divine Comedy", following the "Inferno", and preceding the "Paradiso". The poem was written in the early 14th century. It is an allegory telling of the climb of Dante up the Mount of Purgatory, guided by the Roman poet Virgil, except for the last four cantos at which point Beatrice takes over as Dante's guide.
Luceafărul (poem) Luceafărul (originally spelled "Luceafĕrul"; variously rendered as "The Morning Star", "The Evening Star", "The Vesper", "The Daystar", or "Lucifer") is a Romanian narrative poem by Mihai Eminescu, first published in 1883. It is generally considered his masterpiece, one of the greatest accomplishments in Romanian literature, and one of the last milestones in Europe's Romantic poetry. One in a family or "constellation" of poems, it took Eminescu ten years to conceive, its final shape being partly edited by the philosopher Titu Maiorescu. During this creative process, Eminescu distilled Romanian folklore, Romantic themes, and various staples of Indo-European myth, arriving from a versified fairy tale to a mythopoeia, a self-reflection on his condition as a genius, and an illustration of his philosophy of love.
