It should be noted that the Divine Comedy is not a 'comedy' in the modern sense of the word, although parts of it are certainly comic (see [[#Style(s)]]). It is unclear why Dante referred to his work as a ''Commedia'', though, since it does not follow the same pattern as any previous work, it is hard to suggest what else he could have called it.

The word 'Divine' was never used by Dante himself to describe the work, and was simply applied later because of the subject matter.
