Journal Article
'Laughing at the Vanity of Public Opinion': A Parody of Love by Fame in the Orlando Furioso
2024
Overview
In the Mandricardo-Doralice subplot of the Orlando Furioso , Ariosto parodies the courtly topos of \"love by fame\". His parody is marked by violence as well as by a fixation on possession that reflects the dangers of life at court and the precarity of Italy's position in Europe in the late Renaissance. Ariosto suggests that his craft, literature, has been reduced to a form of cultural currency in an increasingly mercenary world.
