The bustle of Cinthio and Plutarch and Hollinshed is transformed by the poet into verbal hang gliding. The author of this essay writes "epistemology" where he obviously means "etymology," and several times misrepresents the name of the author of the Hecatommithi, Giovanni Battista (not Baptista) Giraldi (not Geraldo) Cinthio. Defenders of romance such as Giambattista Giraldi Cinthio and Giovanni Battista Pigna had argued that romance and epic were distinct genres, and thus modern poems such as the Furioso should not be judged according to Aristotle's rules. |
