Pietro Antonio Domenico Trapassi (1698--1782) was an Italian poet and librettist, considered the most important writer of opera seria libretti. In this volume, Pietro Metastasio presents new translations of Dido Abandoned, Demetrius, and The Olympiad that stay close to the original form and wording. Featuring an introduction that highlights the playwright's life and significant innovations in dramatic technique as well as a short bibliography, Fucilla's translations will be of interest not only to literary scholars, but also to those concerned with the history of music.

Presented for the first time in a critical edition, Tristano Caracciolo's Didonis reginae vita and Penelopes castitas et perseverantia represents much more than a simple youthful rewriting of Boccaccio's homologous biographies (De mulieribus claris, XLII and XL). In their markedly moralizing tone, they are based on the conscious assumption of biographical data as a didactic-exemplary pretext, anticipating a key concept in the mature works of Caracciolo and at the same time constituting an unprecedented document of the reception of the mythographic work of Boccaccio in the Naples of Alfonso I of Aragon--Back cover.
