Abstract

The essay aims to investigate the theme of anger in Boiardo’s Inamoramento di Orlando. Starting from the occurrences of the terms ‘anger’, ‘anger’, ‘fury’, and their meanings, the analysis focuses on the physiognomy of anger, within the poem of Boiard, highlighting the particular physicality that accompanies the manifestation of this emotion. The investigation of the multiple patterns and references that may have influenced the author (including the contemporary Ferrara art), concludes that Boiardo is interested in a theatrical and scenic rendering of anger, rather than its tragic or cathartic dimension.
