Both Dante’s Divine Comedy and Beck’s The Way of Integrity portray a journey of personal transformation. How does Dante’s vision of personal transformation compare and contrast with Beck’s?

Beck asserts, “Integrity is the cure for unhappiness. Period” (xix). Do you agree with her definition of integrity? Do you believe that <a data-internal-link data-link-type="Index of Terms" href="https://www.supersummary.com/the-way-of-integrity/index-of-terms/#405066">integrity</a> is the “cure for unhappiness”? Why or why not?

Beck’s exhorting to listen to one’s “inner guide” presumes a positive view of human nature rather than a negative one. Do you agree with Beck’s position on the innate goodness of one’s inner self? Why or why not? In what ways, if any, could her approach be adapted by someone with a more negative view of human nature?
