Key Notes

Lecture clarification on 2026-06-25.

definition

Jiang states that the textual conditions for purgatory are repentance and the prayers of others rather than a simple crime taxonomy.

Lecture interpretation dated 2026-06-24.

model

Jiang insists the treachery hierarchy is paradoxical if judged by sentiment alone, since blood ties would seem deepest, so Dante must be using a broader criterion tied to the structure of the universe.
