Roland Furieux, tome 3

by Lodovico Ariosto

Translated by Francisque Reynard

"Roland Furieux, tome 3 : Traduction nouvelle par Francisque Reynard" by Ariosto is an epic poem composed in the early 16th century. This sprawling tale weaves together three main storylines: the romance between Saracen knight Roger and warrior Bradamante, Charlemagne's war against invading Saracens, and Roland's descent into madness after discovering that his beloved Princess Angélique has married another. Through labyrinthine narrative shifts, magical creatures, and powerful female warriors, the poem blends chivalric adventure with mythology across countless battles and journeys.
