Orlando Furioso, Tomo I

by Lodovico Ariosto & Manuel Aranda y Sanjuan (Translator)

  • First published: Date unknown
  • Language: Spanish

"Orlando Furioso, Tomo I" by Ludovico Ariosto is an epic chivalric poem published in its definitive form in 1532. This continuation of Boiardo's unfinished romance weaves together tales of war between Charlemagne's Christian paladins and invading Saracen forces. The poem follows multiple intertwining narratives: Orlando's unrequited love for the pagan princess Angelica that drives him to madness, the romance between warrior Bradamante and Saracen Ruggiero, and epic battles across a world mixing reality with fantasy, featuring wizards, sea monsters, and flying horses.
