clorinda my beloved
#comunque immagina entrare in una città e trovare come prima cosa due tizi che stanno per prendere fuoco. clorinda non ha avuto una pausa mai#durante tutta la vita! nasce; viene nascosta; portata via dalla madre; allattata da una tigre; lanciata oltre un fiume; salvata da stgiorgi#l'unica pausetta che tasso le concede dal fare la guerra e rischiare di morire è quella di stare nello stesso letto con erminia a... parlar#e stare insieme dal tramonto all'alba... (un sol letto le accolse ambe talora... in tanta amistà senza divieto)#vabbè personaggio folle vi dico#clorinda#gerusalemme liberata#tasso#sketchini

[…] Vede Tancredi in maggior copia il sangue del suo nemico, e sé non tanto offeso. Ne gode e superbisce. Oh nostra folle mente ch’ogn’aura di fortuna estolle!
Misero, di che godi? Oh quanto mesti fiano i trionfi ed infelice il vanto! Gli occhi tuoi pagheran (se in vita resti) di quel sangue ogni stilla un mar di pianto. […]
Torquato Tasso, Gerusalemme Liberata, XII, 58-59 (1581)

I want you all to know that i have no idea what hnk the manga stands for so every time you put it on my dash i read it as hrvatsko narodno kazalište (croatian national theatre)
#it's like hrt all over again#i finished my first read and i'm so exhausted already#turns out it's closer to 2h than what i thought was 1½h to fully read it#oh well#i'll read it again after a short break#but i'll also make a flowchart this time#with authors and their works separated into centuries and movements#bc i'm so nervous and scared i'll forget who did what and when...#i keep mixing up gerusalemme liberata and orlando furioso😭 it's just the same book to me#so it's a bit harder to remember which one was in which part of cinquecento lmao

L'insostenibile peso dell'assenza
nel valore intrinseco della parte
rispetto al tutto e al possibile.

Going to Naples and Sorrento - on an Italian opera trail.
Watching Mount Vesuvius from Sorrento, across the Bay of Naples, I thought of Pliny the Younger (born 61 AD), as you do, who wrote a detailed description of the catastrophic eruption of the volcano (79 AD) that killed his uncle, the great Roman naturalist, Pliny the Elder, who sailed into the disaster because he was interested in the science of volcanoes. Pliny the younger watched the destruction…

La Gerusalemme liberata by Fabio Fabbi
Gerusalemme liberata, (“Jerusalem Liberated”) heroic epic poem in ottava rima, the masterpiece of Torquato Tasso. He completed it in 1575 and then spent several years revising it. While he was incarcerated in the asylum of Santa Anna, part of the poem was published without his knowledge as Il Goffredo; he published the complete epic in 1581. It was published in English as Jerusalem Delivered. Gerusalemme liberata tells of the Christian army led by Godfrey of Bouillon during the last months of the First Crusade, which recovered Jerusalem from the Turks in 1099.

Rinaldo and Armida
Artist: Angelica Kauffmann (Swiss, 1741–1807)
Date: 1771
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Collection: Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, CT, United States
Description
First exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1772, this depiction of the story of Rinaldo and Armida is taken from Torquato Tasso’s Gerusalemme Liberata (1580), a poetic account of the First Crusade. Rinaldo was a handsome prince, and Armida was a beautiful sorceress sent by the devil to disrupt the crusaders. Armida bewitches Rinaldo but falls in love with him instead, and the pair explore their amorous adventures. The couple is shown at the moment when Rinaldo’s fellow crusaders discover his whereabouts and prepare to rescue him from his enchantment and distractions of love.
