Historian Pelikan (Yale U.) traces the workings of Dante's mind in the portrayal of three Eternal Feminines: Beatrice, the Church, and the Blessed Virgin Mary. All of them appear in Canto XXII of the Paradiso, but they dominate the Paradiso from beginning to end. Each of the three is and each had a real history on Earth before appearing in Paradise.
