Roland Furieux, tome 4

by Lodovico Ariosto

Translated by Francisque Reynard

"Roland Furieux, tome 4 : Traduction nouvelle par Francisque Reynard" by Ariosto is an epic poem composed in the early 16th century. This labyrinthine tale weaves together Charlemagne's war against invading Saracens with the interwoven fates of multiple heroes. At its center: the knight Roland, driven mad by love for Princess Angélique; the Saracen warrior Roger and Christian warrior-maiden Bradamante, whose forbidden romance defies prophecy; and an array of magical objects, mythical creatures, and powerful female warriors who challenge convention through singular combat and daring exploits.
