Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Life and Genius of Ariosto The present volume was originally intended to accompany my adaptations of Tales from Ariosto, and the primary object in view was to do something to revive the interest of the ordinary English reader in the Orlando Furioso and its author. It was remarked recently by a writer in The Times, à propos of the centenary of Waverley, that a book might rank as a classic if it had retained popular favour a hundred years. The Orlando Furioso has stood this test for four times that period. Although from about the middle of the nineteenth century Ariosto has fallen into comparative neglect in English-speaking countries, in Italy, on the other hand, there has been in the same period a great accession to Ariostean literature. Critical editions have been published of Ariosto´s text, and every fact bearing on his life and work has been examined with the greatest care.
