"My Muse Will Have a Story to Paint"
Ariosto's correspondence paints a detailed portrait of the world he lived and wrote in. While some letters illuminate his day-to-day life, including his work as a provincial commissioner for the ruling Este family of Ferrara, others shed light on the composition and production of his poems and plays, allowing a glimpse of the man in his creative workshop. Herbal Doctor, a parody of humanism in general and neoplatonic philosophy in particular, may mark a defense of Ariosto's decision to turn away from the philological world of his contemporaries in order to pursue a different kind of learning.
Satire
Io desidero intendere da voi, Alessandro fratel, compar mio Bagno, s'in corte è ricordanza più di noi; se più il signor me accusa; se compagno per me si lieva e dice la cagione per che, partendo gli altri, io qui rimagno; o, tutti dotti ne la adulazione (l'arte che più tra noi si studia e cole), l'aiutate a biasmarme oltra ragione.
