A couple of views are available for you to use.

The first is a view called dictionary which has 2 columns(table_name and comments). Try SELECT * FROM DICTIONARY;

The second is a view called dict_columns which explains what the columns of a specific view are all about.

or instance a SELECT * FROM DICT_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'DBA_VIEWS'; will provide you the information you seek.
