Answer:

C. He wanted to express his ideas about Catholicism, Italian politics, and basic human nature.

Explanation:

Dante's long narrative poem "Divine Comedy" in Italian and took more than a decade to be done. It has been regarded as one of the best world literatures to be ever written.

The imaginative visioning of the afterlife in the poem is thought to be a representation of the medieval worldview as taught by the Western church. The book contains three parts- Inferno, Purgatory and Paradise. The three parts are a sort of the Christian belief of paradise/ heaven, hell and purgatory. His characterization of the narrative, a travelling to the three realms of the dead, Dante wrote it as a way of expressing his views and ideas about the Catholic faith, Italian politics as well as the basic human nature that he finds has so much flaws.
