model
Jiang links the dream’s collapse of past, present, and future to the universal unconscious existing beyond ordinary time and space.
diagnosis
Bromwich reads 'vaulting ambition' and the image of leaping the 'bank and shoal of time' as Macbeth's false belief that a deed can be made into a purely local event rather than something that stretches across a life.
evidence
The next passage resets the scene by showing Dante eager to press upward while Virgil reminds him that ascent is constrained by time and sunset.
model
Jiang says the frozen lake represents souls immobilized in the exact moment of betrayal and revenge, unable to move beyond that instant.
evidence
The astronomical opening of Canto 2 is evidence that time has returned in Purgatory, unlike hell's fire-and-dark timelessness.
evidence
Canto 4 states that when delight or pain grips the soul, time continues physically but is not perceived because another faculty has seized the whole mind.
