The link between Dante and Galileo is the following: in 1588, Galileo gave two public lectures at the Accademia Fiorentina (Florentine Academy) about the shape, location, and dimensions of hell as described in Dante’’s Inferno. The presentation was held in the Sala del Consiglio dei Duecento in Palazzo Vecchio.
