Extractions: Despite his long service in politics, Ariostos true passion was poetry. He dedicated over 20 years of his life to studying the works of Greek and Latin authors. Ariosto wrote satires, drama, and epics in the ancient form. The Latin influence can be best seen in his satiric works, which were written for the entertainment of the Cardinal. Ariosto was one of the earliest in a long chain of artists, poets, and writers who took inspiration from the Greek and Roman classics. For Ariosto poetry was more than just an art, it was an obsession, he spent many years revising and rewriting his poetry to achieve the perfect literal form. His son states, He (Ariosto) was never satisfied with his verses, that he kept changing them again and again, and for this reason never remembered them (Chroche pg. 31). His masterpiece, Orlando Furioso , took over 30 years to create a final draft. Orlando Furioso (The Mad Roland, Roland Enraged, The Crazy Orlando, etc.) is Ariostos most recognized work. The poem is a continuation of Orlando Innamorato (Orlando in Love), written by Matteo Maria Boiardo. It is considered by some as the greatest literary work of the entire 16th century. He began to write the poem in 1503 and the first written copy wasnt published until 1516. Orlando Furioso is set during in the court of Charlemagne during a fictional siege of Paris conducted by the Moors. The hero, Orlando, falls in love with the beautiful Angela, who is promised to the bravest of Charlemagnes knights. However, she does not return his love and runs away. During her flight, she meets a wounded Moor, Medro, and falls in love with him. Upon hearing of this, Orlando goes mad and travels across France, Spain, and Africa slaughtering everything in his path, terrorizing and killing the innocent. Astolfo travels to the moon (the place of all things lost on earth) and finds the Wisdom of Orlando. He returns to the earth, bringing Orlandos rationality, and calms the enraged Orlando. Other side plots include a romance between the knight Ruggiero and Bradamante. This side plot is meant to be a tribute to Ariostos one time Patron, the Cardinal Ippolito dEstes. Ruggerio is the legendary founder of the house of dEstes.

Extractions: ARIOSTO, LUDOVICO follow his inclination, he applied himself to the study of the classics under Gregorio da Spoleto. But after a short time, during which he read the best Latin authors, he was deprived of his teacher by Gregorio's removal to France as tutor of Francesco Sforza. Ariosto thus lost the opportunity of learning Greek, as he intended. His father dying soon after, he was compelled to forego his literary occupations to undertake the management of the family, whose affairs were embarrassed, and to provide for his nine brothers and sisters, one of whom was a cripple. He wrote, however, about this time some comedies in prose and a few lyrical pieces. Some of these attracted the notice of the cardinal Ippolito d'Este, who took the young poet under his patronage and appointed him one of the gentlemen of his household. This prince usurped the character of a patron of literature, whilst the only reward which the poet received for having dedicated to him the Orlando Furioso Orlando Furioso , humbly apologized for not having immediately shown him the respect which was due to his rank. Although he had little reason to be satisfied with his office, he refused an embassy to Pope Clement VII. offered to him by the secretary of the duke, and spent the remainder of his life at Ferrara, writing comedies, superintending their performance as well as the construction of a theatre, and correcting his

Este, son of Duke Ercole I. Ariosto's duties as a courtier were sharply at odds with his own simple tastes. He was expected to be in constant attendance on the cardinal and to accompany him on dangerous expeditions as well as travel on diplomatic missions. In 1509 he followed the cardinal in Ferrara's campaign against Venice. In 1512 he went to Rome with the cardinal's brother Alfonso, who had succeeded Ercole as duke in 1505 and had sided with France in the Holy League war in an attempt to placate Pope Julius II. In this they were totally unsuccessful and were forced to flee over the Apennines to avoid the pope's wrath. In the following year, after the election of Leo X, hoping to find a situation that would allow him more time to pursue his literary ambitions, Ariosto again went to the Roman court. But his journey was in vain, and he returned to Ferrara. So far Ariosto had produced a number of Latin verses inspired by the Roman poets Tibullus and Horace. They do not compare in technical skill with those by Pietro

Extractions: Reference Desk Encyclopedia Ariosto, Ludovico (l OO key , Italian epic and lyric poet. As a youth he was a favorite at the court of Ferrara; later he was in the service of Ippolito I, Cardinal d'Este, and from 1517 until his death served Alfonso, duke of Ferrara. He was never properly rewarded by his patrons. While in the service of the cardinal, he began writing his masterpiece, the Orlando Furioso, published in its final form in 1532. This epic treatment of the Roland story, theoretically a sequel to the unfinished poem of Boiardo , greatly influenced Shakespeare, Milton, and Byron. It was intended to glorify the Este family as Vergil had glorified the Julians. Ariosto also wrote lyric verse of unequal merit, but he was among the first to write comedies in the vernacular (based loosely on Roman models), among them I Suppositi [the pretenders] and Il Negromante [the necromancer].
