Dante included Ulysses in hell because he was considered a figure of deceit and cunning in Greek mythology. In Dante's "Inferno," Ulysses represents the sin of fraud due to his deceptive nature and his role in the Trojan War. By placing Ulysses in hell, Dante reinforces the consequences of such deceitful actions.

Dante likely considers monstrous those who betray or corrupt the natural order of morality and divine law, as seen in his depiction of sinners in "The Divine Comedy." He portrays figures who commit acts of treachery, violence, and deceit as embodying the essence of monstrosity, particularly in the deeper circles of Hell. Their actions not only harm others but also disrupt the cosmic balance, making them deserving of severe punishment. Ultimately, for Dante, the true monstrosity lies in the moral failures and the rejection of divine love and justice.

In Dante's Inferno, the lawyers are found in the eighth circle of Hell, specifically in the bolgia (ditch) reserved for fraudulent counselors. This bolgia is reserved for those who used their intellect for deceit and manipulation, which is seen as a perversion of their intellectual gifts.
