STEFANO JOSSA

L’ORLANDO FURIOSO DALLA FANTASIA ALLA STORIA: L’opera aperta di Ariosto

Abstract

Ariosto's Orlando Furioso was published in its final form on October 1st, 1532. Its author lived until July 6th, 1533. What happened in those nine months between the publication of the poem and the death of the author? Did Ariosto continue writing or not? Did he ask for corrections and suggestions to his friends and fellow literates? To what extent can we accept the philological rule of the last will of the author?
