Orlando Furioso: A New Verse Translation
Authors
More about the book
A translation of Orlando Furioso (Mad Orlando). It introduces readers to Ariosto's now neglected masterpiece - a poem whose impact on Western literature can scarcely be exaggerated. It was a major influence on Spenser's Faerie Queene. William Shakespeare borrowed one of its plots. More recently, Italo Calvino drew inspiration from it.
