Orlando Furioso

LibriVox recording of Orlando Furioso, by Ludovico Ariosto, translated by John Harington. Read by Thomas A. Copeland. Charlemagne's nephew Orlando (AKA Roland) is driven insane by the infidelity of his beloved Angelica. Angelica's relationship with him and others loosely unifies multiple story lines to produce a rich tapestry of romance, fictionalized history, and pure fantasy. This romance-epic is a sequel to the less distinguished and unfinished romance Orlando Innamorato, by Mattteo Maria Boiardo. (Summary by Thomas A. Copeland) For further information, including links to online text, reade
