Dimensions are for one book.</p><p>Four books encapsulated into two volumes. The interior of all four books is good and clean. The 19th century bindings have seen better days.

The earliest version appeared in 1516 although the poem was not published in its complete form until 1532. <em>Orlando furioso</em> is a continuation of Matteo Maria Boiardo's unfinished romance <em>Orlando innamorato</em> <em>Orlando in Love</em> published posthumously in 1495. In its historical setting and characters it shares some features with the Old French <em>Chanson de Roland</em> of the eleventh century which tells of the death of Roland. The story is also a chivalric romance which stemmed from a tradition beginning in the late Middle Ages and continuing in popularity in the 16th century and well into the 17th.</p><p>Orlando is the Christian knight known in French and subsequently English as Roland. The story takes place against the background of the war between Charlemagne's Christian paladins and the Saracen army that has invaded Europe and is attempting to overthrow the Christian empire. The poem is about war and love and the romantic ideal of chivalry. It mixes realism and fantasy humor and tragedy.The stage is the entire world plus a trip to the Moon. The large cast of characters features Christians and Saracens soldiers and sorcerers and fantastic creatures including a gigantic sea monster called the Orc and a flying horse called the hippogriff. Many themes are interwoven in its complicated episodic structure but the most important are the paladin Orlando's unrequited love for the pagan princess Angelica which drives him mad; the love between the female Christian warrior Bradamante and the Saracen Ruggiero who are supposed to be the ancestors of Ariosto's patrons the House of Este of Ferrara; and the war between Christian and Infidel.</p><p>The poem is divided into forty-six cantos each containing a variable number of eight-line stanzas in <em>ottava rima</em> a rhyme scheme of abababcc. <em>Ottava rima</em> had been used in previous Italian romantic epics including Luigi Pulci's <em>Morgante</em> and Boiardo's <em>Orlando Innamorato</em>. Ariosto's work is 38736 lines long in total making it one of the longest poems in European literature.</p><p><strong>Ludovico Ariosto</strong> 8 September 1474 – 6 July 1533 was an Italian poet. He is best known as the author of the romance epic <em>Orlando Furioso</em> 1516. The poem a continuation of Matteo Maria Boiardo's <em>Orlando Innamorato</em> describes the adventures of Charlemagne Orlando and the Franks as they battle against the Saracens with diversions into many side plots. The poem is transformed into a satire of the chivalric tradition. Ariosto composed the poem in the ottava rima rhyme scheme and introduced narrative commentary throughout the work.</p><p>Ariosto also coined the term "humanism" in Italian <em>umanesimo</em> for choosing to focus upon the strengths and potential of humanity rather than only upon its role as subordinate to God. This led to Renaissance humanism.</p> Gioacchino Avesani. hardcover
