Satan is trapped in the frozen central zone in the Ninth Circle of Hell, Canto 34.
In the very centre of Hell, condemned for committing the ultimate sin (personal treachery against God), is
Satan. Satan is described as a giant, terrifying beast with three faces, one red, one black, and one a pale yellow:
he had three faces: one in front bloodred;
and then another two that, just above
the midpoint of each shoulder, joined the first;
and at the crown, all three were reattached;
the right looked somewhat yellow, somewhat white;
the left in its appearance was like those
who come from where the Nile, descending, flows.
[58]Satan is waist deep in ice, weeping tears from his six eyes, and beating his six wings as if trying to escape, although the icy wind that emanates only further ensures his imprisonment (as well as that of the others in the ring). Each face has a mouth that chews on a prominent traitor, with
Brutus and
Cassius feet-first in the left and right mouths respectively. These men were involved in the assassination of
Julius Caesar—an act which, to Dante, represented the destruction of a unified
Italy and the killing of the man who was divinely appointed to govern the world.
[59] In the central, most vicious mouth is
Judas Iscariot—the namesake of Judecca and the betrayer of
Jesus. Judas is being administered the most horrifying torture of the three traitors, his head gnawed by Satan's mouth, and his back being forever skinned by Satan's claws. What is seen here is a perverted trinity: Satan is impotent, ignorant, and full of hate, in contrast to the
all-powerful,
all-knowing, and loving nature of God.
[59]
The two poets escape Hell by climbing down Satan's ragged fur, passing through the centre of the earth (with a consequent change in the direction of
gravity, causing Dante to at first think they are returning to Hell), and they emerge in the other hemisphere (described in the
Purgatorio) just before dawn on
Easter Sunday, beneath a sky studded with stars (Canto XXXIV).
