Soft cover. Condition: Very Good Plus. First Edition Thus. 1976. Edinburgh Bilingual Library #11. x, 413pp. Excellent condition with no inscriptions. Italian text with facing English translation. "The roots of the Arcadian theme in Pastor fido (1589) may be traced to Sannazaro but Guarini's originality is evident with the introduction into his pastoral play of elements from the world of tragedy. So we have the wrath of the gods, oracles, dreams and omens, and an elaborate network of confusion round the sentiment of love, culminating in the nuptials of Amarilli and Mirtillo: 'O Happy couple! True joy is a thing that springs from Vertue after suffering.' In Volpone, Jonson wrote: 'Here's Pastor Fido all our English writers will deign to steal out of this author, he has so modern and facile a vein', and indeed Guarini gave Europe its model for Dramatic Pastoral. Richard Fanshawe's translation, published in 1647, is a masterpiece in its own right.".
