The Jerusalem Delivered of Torquato Tasso is an epic poem written by the Italian poet Torquato Tasso in the late 16th century. The poem tells the story of the First Crusade, focusing on the siege of Jerusalem and the battles between the Christian knights and the Muslim army. The plot revolves around the love story of the Christian knight Rinaldo and the pagan sorceress Armida. The poem is divided into 20 cantos and is written in ottava rima, a form of poetry consisting of eight-line stanzas. The Jerusalem Delivered is considered one of the masterpieces of Italian literature and has been translated into many languages. It is known for its vivid descriptions, its romantic and heroic themes, and its exploration of the conflict between Christianity and Islam.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
