Book Details
First Sentence
"In Battista Guarini's 1588 treatise Il Verrato, amid the barrage of arguments against Dr. Iason De Nores of the Padua studio, refuting the charges of "monstrosity" and "disproportion" that had been laid at the door of the new genres of tragicomedy and pastoral, we read: And when we come to our own day, what need have we to exorcise terror and commiseration with tragic representations, having the most holy precepts of our religion, taught to us by the words of the Apostles?"
