Inferno writer (5)
I believe the answer is:
dante
'inferno writer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for dante that I've seen before include "22 [FT SETTER]" , "Author of the Divine Comedy, d. 1321" , "Thirteenth-fourteenth century Italian poet" , "Net Da a poet" , "Italian poet, 1265-1321" .)
