Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a critical analysis of Niccolà Forteguerri's chivalric burlesque poem, Ricciardetto. Forteguerri's work, which was inspired by the romantic poems of Italy, including the likes of Pulci's Morgante, Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, Boiardo's Orlando Innamorato, and Lippi's Malmantile Racquistato, stands as a notable example of its genre. The author delves into the key characteristics and themes of Ricciardetto, examining its use of humor, mockery, and the blending of the lofty with the more traditionally farcical. They explore the poem's place within the broader context of European literary history and consider the influence that Forteguerri's approach has had on subsequent works of literature. Ultimately, this book provides unique insight into Forteguerri's significant contribution to the tradition of chivalric burlesque and its literary legacy.
