An original and challenging work, The Quest for Epic documents the development of Italian narrative from the chivalric romance at the end of the fifteenth century to the genre of epic in the sixteenth century. Zatti focuses on Ariosto?s Orlando Furioso, written in the early 1500s, and progresses to Tasso?s Jerusalem Delivered, written at the end of the century, but also touches briefly on Boiardo, Ariosto?s great predecessor at the Estense court in Ferrara, as well as on Pulci, Trissino, and many other Italian writers of the period. Zatti highlights the critical debates over narrative form in the sixteenth century that become signposts on the way to literary modernity and the eventual rise of the modern novel. Albert Russell Ascoli?s introduction provides context by mapping Zatti?s criticism and situating it among Italian and Anglo-American literary critical studies, making a case for the contribution this book will have for English-language readers.Italian poetry16th centuryHistory and criticismElectronic books.Italian poetryHistory and criticism.851/.409353Zatti Sergio1950-165731Looney Dennis, MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456387303321The quest for epic2489259UNINA
