Sir John Harington (1560-1612) was a godson of Queen Elizabeth and
the author of "Orlando Furioso in English Heroical Verse", but a
man of singularly unsuccessful career, and with a reputation for
folly and indiscretion. One such indiscretion - the agreement to
act as guarantor for the debt of an uncle - had landed him
temporarily in the Tower of London in 1603, the year of James I's
accession to the throne. The Sixth Book of Virgil's "Aeneid" -
clearly an attempt to win the new sovereign's favour - was
presented to the King the following year, for his son Prince Henry,
the ten-year-old heir apparent. The manuscript of this work, long
thought to be lost, is here published for the first time. The
manuscripts consist of 162 neatly written pages, containing an
epistle to the King, parallel English and Latin texts (the latter
added, after the first 8 lines, by a scribe), marginal explanatory
notes, and a "comment" in seven chapters.
A scholarly edition of a work by Ludovico Ariosto. The edition
presents an authoritative text, together with an introduction,
