I read a prose translation, I should have tried to find poetry version. Unfinished epic poem, knights and enchantments etc but little of interest if you've already read things like the Faerie Queen. ( ) This is the first complete English translation of the great Italian renaissance epic, the forerunner of Ariosto's even more famous Orlando Furioso which I read many years ago in Harrington's Elizabethan translation after reading Pratt and De Camp's Castle of Iron set in that world. I have long wanted to erad Boiardo, but my Italian is not good enough to read the original, so I was very glad to get this translation even if it was a bit expensive. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Like Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, Boiardo's chivalric tale dating from the 1480s, first entertained the culturally innovative court of Ferrara in Italy. Inventive, humorous, inexhaustible, the story recounts Orlando's love-stricken pursuit of Angelica through a fairyland that combines themilitary valours of Charlemagne's crusaders with the enchantments of King Arthur's court.Charles Ross, translator of the only complete Innamorato in English, has partially abridged his translation for this edition. His choice of tetrameter allows a line-for-line translation without the need for padding, and it reproduces the feel of Boiardo's verse. he has also provided anintroduction, thorough annotation, and maps of the key journeys in this epic romance.
