Yes. Dante Alighieri and his Divine Comedy.

Considered as Italy's greatest poet, Dante Alighieri ( 1265 - 1321 ) was the scion of the Florentine family who mastered the art of lyric poetry at an early age. His first major work, " La Vita Nuova ( 1292 ), was a tribute to Beatrice Portinari, the greatest love of his life.
Dante's political activism resulted in his being exiled from Florence, and he eventually settled in Ravenna.

Here the Divine Comedy, - The Infierno, The Purgatorio and The Paradiso, was written between 1308 and 1320.
This is the plot of his famous divine comedy:

The Infierno

• Dante, with the great poet Virgil as his guide begins his journey to spiritual enlightenment by descending into hell and discovering the reasons for eternal punishment. ( The 9 levels of hell )
  The Purgtorio

• Dante continues his journey through purgatory and learns to accept life's burdens lightly, as a matter pf faith in God's divine wisdom.
  The Paradiso

• Upon entering Heaven, Dante sees the perfection of God's creation and rejoices in the revelation of his goodness and mercy.

Interesting. I'm sure to watch this story by poetry if it will be directed in the movie.
