Synopsis

Excerpt from The Stoddard Library, Vol. 12: A Thousand Hours of Entertainment With the World's Great Writers

Torquato tasso, an eminent Italian poet. Born at Sorrento, Italy, March 11, 1544; died at Rome, April 25, 1595. Author of Rinaldo, Aminta, Jerusalem Delivered, Jerusalem Conquered and Toris mondo. Nothing is more pitifully tragic than the story of this poet's life, in striking contrast to the splendor of his genius and the grandeur of his work.
