    L'Orlando furioso (1516) è un poema cavalleresco che racconta le avventure del paladino Orlando, innamorato di Angelica, che impazzisce quando scopre che la sua amata ha una relazione con un altro uomo. L'opera ha una trama molto stratificata che si sviluppa sostanzialmente su tre narrazioniprincipali: quella militare, costituita dalla guerra tra i paladini, difensori della religione cristiana, e i lSaraceni infedeli; quella amorosa, incentrata sulla fuga di Angelica e sulla pazzia di Orlando, e infine quella encomiastica, con cui si lodava la grandezza dei duchi d'Este.Ludovico Ariosto (1474-1533) è stato un poeta italiano a cavallo tra il ‘400 e il ‘500. E’ considerato uno degli autori più celebri ed influenti del suo tempo. Le sue opere vengono studiate a scuola ancora oggi. Ludovico Ariosto visse come cortigiano presso potenti cardinali e successivamente presso la famiglia De Medici, che elogiò con la sua letteratura poetica e satirica.

    One of the greatest epic poems of the Italian Renaissance, Orlando Furioso is an intricate tale of love and enchantment set at the time of the Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne's conflict with the Moors. When Count Orlando returns to France from Cathay with the captive Angelica as his prize, her beauty soon inspires his cousin Rinaldo to challenge him to a duel - but during their battle, Angelica escapes from both knights on horseback and begins a desperate quest for freedom. This dazzling kaleidoscope of fabulous adventures, sorcery and romance has inspired generations of writers - including Spenser and Shakespeare - with its depiction of a fantastical world of magic rings, flying horses, sinister wizardry and barbaric splendour.
