“Dante the Pilgrim wakes from a stupor to discover that he's lost in a dark forest and can't remember anything from the night before.”
Dante was an Italian poet of the Middle Ages. The name Dante is, according to the words of Jacopo Alighieri, a hypocorism for Durante. In contemporary documents it is followed by the patronymic Alagherii or de Alagheriis; it was Boccaccio who popularized the form Alighieri. ([Source][1].)
