Yes, the modern Filipino can learn from the Middle Ages and "The Divine Comedy" by focusing on themes like personal growth, redemption, and societal reflection. By studying the literature and history of these periods, individuals can gain insight into overcoming challenges, facing adversity, and striving for moral development in the face of tribulations. Ultimately, these lessons can be applied to contemporary society to foster personal and collective progress.
I think probably Dante's Divine Comedy might be the most famous written work of the Middle Ages. Another possibility could be Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.
It was in Italian unlike the others which were in Latin.

Dante called the poem "Commedia" (translated as "Comedy" with the adjective "Divine" being added later in the 14th century) because poems in the ancient world were classified as High ("Tragedy") or Low ("Comedy"). Low poems had happy endings and were of everyday or vulgar subjects, while High poems were for more serious matters. Dante was one of the first in the Middle Ages to write of a serious subject, the Redemption of man, in the low and vulgar Italian language and not the Latin language as one might expect for such a serious topic. Our word comedy has moved on and does not equate to the commedia of Dante.
Chaucer wrote in English, and Dante wrote in Italian, although both were working with older versions than we have now. Chaucer was writing in what they call "Middle English," which is often hard for modern speakers to understand. Dante's Divine Comedy was written in the Tuscan dialect, which was significant at the time because most people were writing poetry in Latin, and writing in other, "lesser" languages was considered uncool. :)

The Divine Comedy exemplifies the transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance through its blend of medieval themes and humanist ideals. While it retains the Christian worldview prevalent in the Middle Ages, it also emphasizes individual experience and personal journey, reflecting the Renaissance focus on humanism and the importance of the individual. Additionally, Dante's use of vernacular Italian instead of Latin marks a shift towards greater accessibility and the celebration of local culture, characteristic of Renaissance thought. Overall, the work bridges the two eras, showcasing a movement towards a more human-centered perspective.
Dante Alighieri wrote during the Late Middle Ages, specifically in the 14th century. His most famous work, "The Divine Comedy," is considered a masterpiece of Italian literature and a cornerstone of Medieval literature.
