The romance epics of Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso

"In this book, Jo Ann Cavallo offers a new interpretation of the history of the Renaissance romance epic in northern Italy, focusing on three major chivalric poets: Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso. Cavallo challenges previous critical assumptions about the trajectory of the romance genre, especially regarding questions of creative imitation, allegory, ideology, and political engagement." "The Romance Epics of Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso is the first critical study to look at the relationship of the three poets within both literary and historical contexts."--BOOK JACKET.
