Viac o knihe Orlando Furioso (Oxford World's Classics) (Ariosto, L.)
`I sing of knights and ladies, of love and arms, of courtly chivalry, of courageous deeds.´ So begins Ariosto´s Orlando Furioso (1532), the culmination of the chivalric legends of Charlemagne and the Saracen invasion of France. It is a brilliantly witty parody of the medieval romances, and a fitting monument to the court society of the Italian Renaissance which gave them birth. This unabridged prose translation faithfully captures the narrative entire and is a kaleidoscope of scenes and emotions of fact and fantasy.
