About this book

Orlando Innamorato (The ^AWorld's Classics) by Boiardo, Matteo Maria. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780192824387.

Like Ariostos Orlando Furioso, Boiardos chivalric verse tale, dating from the 1480s, first entertained the culturally innovative court of Ferrara. Inventive, humorous, inexhaustible, the story recounts Orlandos love-striken pursuit of Angelica through a fairyland that combines the military valours of Charlemagnes crusaders with the enchantments of King Arthurs court. This newly translated and abridged edition is the only one available, and it offers thorough annotation as well as an introduction and maps.
